Window Tinting FAQs
Yes. Window tinting Dubai rules typically allow up to 50% VLT on side and rear windows for private vehicles; fronts follow specific limits. We install compliant 3M window tint.
VLT is how much light a film lets in. Many drivers pick 50 window tint for balanced visibility and heat control, while darker shades improve privacy. If you want maximum performance, choose a ceramic window tint that blocks heat even at lighter shades. Always follow local rules for car window tinting Dubai; we can recommend a legal, comfortable option for daily driving.
Ceramic window tint rejects more infrared heat, keeps signals clear, and lasts longer than dyed films. It is a top choice for the best car window tinting Dubai results.
Most daily drivers pick 30% to 50% VLT for balanced day and night visibility. We match window tint film to your needs and rules, including 50 window tint options.

Paint Protection Film (PPF) FAQs
PPF stands for paint protection film. It is a clear polyurethane car protection film that shields your paint from sand, chips, scratches, and UV. For daily driving in the UAE, paint protection film Dubai solutions like XPEL PPF, 3M PPF, SunTek PPF, and STEK PPF keep your finish looking new.
PPF Dubai pricing depends on brand, coverage, and vehicle size. A front kit is more affordable, while full body PPF wrap offers maximum protection. Ask us for exact PPF car packages and a clear quote for car paint protection film Dubai.
Yes. Many modern paint protection films are self healing, meaning light swirls and marks disappear with heat from the sun or warm water. Self healing is a hallmark of top brands of car protection film.
Gloss PPF preserves factory shine while matte PPF gives a satin, stealth look. Both provide the same PPF paint protection. Choose based on the finish you want for your PPF car.
Most premium PPF film is around 7 to 8 mils thick. Quality, clarity, adhesive, and top coat matter more than just thickness for real world paint protection in Dubai.
Low quality films may discolor. Reputable PPF film brands with UV-stable top coats resist yellowing even in UAE conditions. We recommend proven options such as XPEL, 3M, Sun Tek, or STEK for the best PPF results.
Properly installed car paint protection film is almost invisible. Edges are wrapped where possible for a clean PPF wrap look, preserving your OEM finish.
When applied correctly, paint protection film does not interfere with parking sensors, radar, or cameras. We trim patterns to keep ADAS performance accurate.
Premium PPF film can last 5 to 10 years in Dubai when installed correctly and maintained well. Leading brands such as XPEL PPF and 3M PPF include manufacturer warranties for durability in UAE heat.
It depends on your driving and priorities. Front kits protect the highest impact zones. Full body maximizes uniform protection and finish.
Yes. A ceramic top coat on PPF improves gloss and makes washing easier. If you are choosing between ceramic coating vs PPF, note that PPF stops physical chips while coating adds slickness and UV resistance. Many clients do ceramic coating on PPF for a complete solution.
Yes. Quality PPF uses a removable adhesive. Professionals can safely lift the film without harming OEM paint, which is why car scratch protector film is popular on leased and high value cars.
Yes. Heated, controlled removal preserves OEM paint when the paint is sound.
Most PPF Dubai installs take 1 to 3 days depending on coverage and complexity. Pre-cut patterns speed up clean installs while maintaining precise fitment.
We offer leading PPF film choices including XPEL PPF, 3M PPF, Sun Tek PPF, and STEK PPF, all with UAE-valid manufacturer warranties for paint protection film in Dubai.
