What to Expect
Written Scope, Start to Finish
Turnaround
You get a realistic timeline at assessment and regular updates — not an optimistic estimate that quietly slips later.
How It Works
Assessment terms are confirmed for the job, followed by a written quote you approve before work begins. The agreed scope is checked before handover, and added work requires your approval.
Workshop Access
Our workshop is in Al Quoz. Any outside specialist work is identified in the agreed repair scope. If the car is not safe to drive, we can collect it and return it after the work — arrange that on WhatsApp. On an insurance claim, the insurer may have its own authorised recovery route; ask it first.
22nd St, Al Quoz Industrial Area 4, Dubai, UAE

Services and Checks
The work and checks for your vehicle are agreed in the written quote. This list shows possible scope, not a package with every item included.
Paint Correction Dubai
Swirl marks, light scratches, water spots, dull clear coat, and oxidation corrected using a measured machine polishing process.
Machine Polishing
Single-stage or multi-stage machine polishing restores gloss and clarity when the paint can be corrected without repainting.
Ceramic Coating
Coating product, preparation, layers, care requirements and written durability terms are confirmed before purchase.
Interior Deep Clean
Full interior vacuum, fabric or leather cleaning, dashboard and trim conditioning, and glass cleaning inside and out.
Engine Bay Detailing
The cleaning method, protected components, exclusions and expected finish are confirmed after inspecting the engine bay.
Headlight Restoration
Lens condition is assessed before polishing, sealing, replacement or another repair path is recommended; no legal-output result is promised without measurement.
Paint Protection Film (PPF) Advice
We advise on PPF application for high-impact areas (bonnet, bumper, sills) to prevent stone chips and road damage.
Our Advantage
Why Choose Active Auto
Preparation Comes Before the Coating
Gtechniq describes preparation as the foundation of coating performance, with cleaning used to remove contamination before the protective layer is applied. Gtechniq: coating preparation
Its published sequence separates washing, removal of embedded contamination with a clay bar, correction of minor scratches and swirls, and preparation of a clean clear coat. Gtechniq: coating preparation
GYEON also places washing and decontamination ahead of polishing in its preparation instructions, rather than presenting the final coating as a substitute for cleaning. GYEON: preparation guidance
The manufacturer describes its primer polish as a way to refine light defects before coating, with residue removed using a clean microfibre towel. GYEON: preparation guidance
GYEON recommends a further degreasing step with its preparation product when the coating will be applied immediately after that primer. GYEON: preparation guidance
What Coating Protection Does Not Mean
Gtechniq explicitly separates ceramic coatings from protection against stone impacts: its guidance says a thin coating cannot provide meaningful resistance to stone chips. Gtechniq: coating limitations
The manufacturer also describes limits to abrasion resistance when coated paint meets hedges, abrasive automatic washes or dirt held in a washing mitt. Gtechniq: coating limitations
For stone-chip concerns, its comparison instead discusses a thicker, softer protective film that can absorb an impact. Gtechniq: coating limitations
Washing and Water Beading After Coating
Gtechniq recommends regular hand washing with a pH-neutral shampoo and avoiding automatic washes that use abrasive brushes. Gtechniq: coating preparation
Its care guidance also calls for bird droppings, tree sap and water spots to be removed promptly to reduce the risk of etching. Gtechniq: coating preparation
The same manufacturer explains that weaker water beading can reflect surface contamination, so that observation alone does not establish that all coating protection has disappeared. Gtechniq: coating limitations
It distinguishes this contamination from loss of the water-repellent top layer, which may occur while an underlying coating remains on the paint. Gtechniq: coating limitations
