Why your paint needs PPF in Abu Dhabi
The highways between MBZ City, central Abu Dhabi and Dubai are full of small stones thrown up by trucks. Every stone leaves a tiny chip, and over time the front of the car fills with marks. Add wind-blown sand and the summer sun, and the paint has a hard life.
Paint protection film (PPF) takes those hits instead of the paint. When you sell the car later, the original paint underneath is still as it was, and that shows in the price.
Coverage options: front, partial or full
There is also gloss PPF, which keeps the original look of the paint, and matte PPF, which gives the car a satin finish with the same protection.
Front coverage
Front bumper, bonnet, front wings and mirrors. These take most of the stone chips, and it is the most popular choice for strong protection at a sensible price.
Partial, based on how you use the car
We add high-wear areas such as door handle cups, door sills and the boot edge that gets scratched when loading.
Full-body coverage
Every painted panel. Suited to new or high-value cars, or to anyone who wants to keep the paint in showroom condition for years.
How we fit PPF
PPF is careful work that takes time, depending on how much of the car is covered.
Step 1
Inspect the paint
We check the paint under strong light to see every chip and scratch before covering it.
Step 2
Clean and prepare
The paint is washed and decontaminated, and polished if needed, so nothing is trapped under the film.
Step 3
Lay and squeegee
The film goes on wet, is shaped around the curves, and the water is pressed out with a squeegee.
Step 4
Finish and inspect
Edges are wrapped, every panel is checked, and we hand the car back with the warranty explained.
What decides the price of PPF
PPF prices vary a lot from car to car, so we do not quote one number for everyone. The price depends on how much you cover (front or full), the size of the car and how complex its bumpers are, the film type, thickness and warranty, and the state of the paint before fitting, including whether it needs polishing first.

PPF or ceramic coating?
We hear this question a lot. Put simply: PPF is a thick physical layer that absorbs stone chips and scratches. Ceramic coating is a very thin layer that adds gloss and repels water and dirt, but it will not stop a stone chip.
Many customers combine the two: PPF on the front, where the hits land, and ceramic coating on the rest of the car and on top of the film, for easier washing and extra gloss.
Warranty and what to expect after fitting
PPF from our shop comes with a warranty from 1 year, and the length depends on the film you choose. Before we start, we explain what the warranty covers, such as yellowing, peeling and bubbling.
In the first days you may see faint lines or small water spots under the film. That is fitting solution, and it dries out and disappears within days.
Looking after your PPF
- Do not wash the car for about a week after fitting
- Hand wash, or use a wash without hard brushes
- Do not aim a pressure washer straight at the film edges
- Remove bird droppings and bug splatter quickly so they do not leave a mark
Frequently asked questions
Can you see PPF on the car?
The film is clear, and when it is fitted well you can barely see it except at the edges up close. Gloss film keeps the original look of the paint.
How long does PPF last?
It depends on the film and how it is looked after. We explain the warranty for each film, which starts from 1 year.
Does PPF protect against scratches?
It protects against stone chips and everyday light scratches. Very deep scratches or accidents can cut the film, but in most cases the paint underneath stays protected.
Can I fit PPF on a used car?
Yes, but we check the paint first. If it has scratches or dullness, we polish it before fitting, because the film preserves whatever is underneath.
Can the film be removed later?
Yes. Removed the right way, it does not harm factory paint that is in good condition.
When can I wash the car after PPF?
We recommend waiting about a week so the fitting solution dries and the film fully bonds.
