Question 1

Can PPF be applied over existing scratches?

Accepted Answer

Minor scratches can be covered by PPF; however, deep scratches should be repaired first for optimal results. PPF's clear nature means underlying imperfections may remain visible, so professional paint correction is recommended before application.

Question 2

What is Paint Protection Film (PPF)?

Accepted Answer

PPF is a clear film applied to protect your car's paint from scratches, chips, and UV damage while maintaining its original look. This thermoplastic urethane film creates an invisible shield that absorbs impact damage and prevents environmental deterioration.

Question 3

How much does PPF cost in Dubai?

Accepted Answer

PPF costs range from AED 7,000 to AED 20,000 depending on coverage area and film type (standard vs self-healing). Partial applications covering high-impact areas start at AED 2,500, while full-body protection with premium self-healing films costs more.

Question 4

Is PPF worth it for luxury cars in Dubai?

Accepted Answer

Yes, PPF protects high-value vehicles from sand abrasion and UV damage common in Dubai's environment. The investment represents a small percentage of the vehicle's value while preserving paintwork, maintaining resale value, and preventing costly repaints.

Question 5

How long does PPF last in Dubai's climate?

Accepted Answer

High-quality PPF lasts 5-10 years with proper care under extreme heat and sand exposure in Dubai. Premium self-healing films retain their protective properties and clarity longer than standard films, with specialized adhesives formulated for extreme temperatures.
