Started in a double-bay garage

No Trase started in a double-bay garage in 2023 with one aim: to do the work properly. No cut corners, no rushed jobs and no cheaper substitutes for the products we trust.

We traded as Trase Ceramic Coating & Paint Protection in Kangaroo Point, took a break, and reopened as No Trase in Forest Lake in October 2026. Same team, same standard.

The name is word play on "no trace": no trace left behind of how your car used to look. We work by appointment from 17 Killarney Street, seven days a week, and your car is covered by our insurance, including public liability, the whole time it's with us.

What we stand for

Precision over speed
We don't rush. Every stage gets the time it needs, because shortcuts show up later.
Product integrity
Feynlab, Kraken, Koch-Chemie, STEK, Rupes and CarPro, applied the way each maker trained us to. Nothing is swapped out to save money.
Honest advice
We tell you what your car needs and what it doesn't. If a lighter package will do the job, we'll say so.
Results you can check
Every coating carries its maker's warranty and a yearly check-up. Every correction is inspected under the lights with you before handover.
