Repair it right, once.
A paint repair only lasts when the whole job is right: the damage taken back properly, primer, an exact colour match, clearcoat, then a cut and polish so you cannot see where the repair ends. Skip a step and it shows in the Dubai sun within months.

Which repair do you need?
Most paint damage does not need a full respray. This is how we decide, and we will tell you straight when polishing is enough.
| Polish | Panel repaint | Full respray | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Best for | Swirls, light scratches in the clear | Deep scratches, scuffs, chips, dents, faded panels | Full colour change or badly failed paint |
| Paint added | None | Primer, base and clear on the damaged panels | The whole car |
| Factory paint kept | Yes | Yes, everywhere else | No |
| Typical price | Quoted per car | Around AED 750 per panel | Quoted after inspection |
| Time | A day or less | Depends on panels | Longest |
The full comparison: panel repaint vs full respray
What we paint.
From one scuffed bumper to a full blackout. Pick what you need, or send photos and we will tell you.
How we paint.
The same five steps on every job, from one bumper corner to a full car.
We look at the damage under strong light and tell you whether it needs paint at all, or whether polishing will do.
Damage is taken back, dents dealt with, edges feathered and the area masked, then primed with PPG primer.
Your colour is mixed from the OEM formula and checked against the car, so the new paint matches the old.
Basecoat and clearcoat go on in the spray booth, in clean air, so there is no dust in the finish.
Once cured, the repair is cut and polished so it blends into the panels around it.

At Apex Detail Studio, 6A Street, Al Quoz Industrial 3, Dubai. We are open Saturday to Thursday, 10am to 7pm, and closed on Friday. WhatsApp +971 58 549 2739 with photos of the damage.
Do you repaint just one panel?
Yes. Most damage only needs the affected panels repaired and resprayed, then blended into the panels around it. We only suggest more when the colour or condition needs it. More in panel repaint vs full respray.
Will the new paint match my car?
We mix your colour from the OEM formula in the PPG system and check it against the car before spraying, then cut and polish the repair so it blends with the panels around it.
Which paint do you use?
We refinish with PPG, using its matched primers, basecoats and clearcoats. More in why we paint with PPG.
How much does it cost to paint rims in Dubai?
Painting all four rims costs AED 4,000 before VAT, in factory or custom colours. More in our alloy wheel refinishing guide.
How much is a blackout package?
Full blackout packages start from AED 6,500 before VAT, depending on which trim, grilles, badges and wheels you want in gloss black.
Can you paint brake calipers?
Yes. We paint calipers in the colour of your choice, like the yellow calipers on this Ferrari 488 GTB. Caliper painting is quoted per car.
Do I need paint, or will polishing fix it?
Swirls and light scratches that sit in the clearcoat can usually be polished out. Scratches through to primer, chips, scuffs and faded clear need paint. We tell you which one your car needs when we inspect it.
Can you repair stone chips?
Yes. Small chips can be touched in, and panels with many chips are better repaired and resprayed. More in stone chip repair.
Do you repair matte and satin paint?
Matte and satin finishes cannot be spot polished like gloss, so repairs need more care. More in our matte and satin paint repair guide.
How long does a paint repair take?
It depends on the number of panels and the damage. The team confirms timing with your quote.
How do I protect new paint after a repair?
Let the paint cure fully, then protect it with paint protection film or a ceramic coating. More in protecting fresh paint after repair.
Protect the new paint.
Fresh paint is the best time to protect it. Here is what owners add once the paint has cured.
