How much does car touch-up paint cost?
Our guide total for minor chips or a small scratch is AED 210–525 including 5% VAT. Larger or deeper local paint damage is estimated at AED 525–1,050 where that repair is suitable. The final quotation identifies the areas, preparation and finish. Several panels, rust or wider repainting are assessed separately.
Will the chip disappear completely?
A controlled touch-up can reduce the contrast of a chip and cover the damaged area, but its edge, texture or reflection can remain visible close up. Tell us when a uniform panel appearance matters most, so we can compare a sprayed repair before you approve the work.
Can you repair stone chips without painting the whole bonnet?
Often, suitable isolated chips can be touched up while keeping the surrounding original paint. We check how many there are, their depth and the condition of the coating. Widespread chipping or failed paint may make a wider repaint a better choice for the finish you expect.
Do white, black, metallic and pearl paints all match the same way?
No. We start with the paint code and assess the existing finish. Metallic and pearl effects can reflect differently in a filled chip than in sprayed paint. Fading, previous repainting and low-gloss finishes also affect the repair choice and expected appearance.
Is touch-up paint the same as scratch removal or PDR?
No. Touch-up adds paint to a small damaged area. Correction addresses suitable surface marks without adding colour. Paintless dent removal reshapes a suitable dent while retaining the paint, but it does not replace paint missing from a chip or scratch. We assess which work your car needs.
Can a touch-up repair rust or peeling clear coat?
Not by covering it with colour. Corrosion and failed coating need appropriate preparation or a wider repair first. The correct treatment also depends on whether the panel is steel, aluminium or plastic. We explain any additional preparation in the quotation.
Can I wait while you repair it?
Some minor repairs can fit a same-day appointment, but assessment, the booking slot and drying requirements determine collection. Send photos before travelling and tell us your deadline. We do not promise a while-you-wait repair for every chip or scratch.
Does the two-year warranty cover future stone chips?
The two-year warranty is for paintwork only, subject to the written terms for the agreed repaired areas. A fresh stone impact, parking scratch or other new damage is not the same as a paintwork concern. Keep the invoice and contact us for inspection before another workshop alters the repair.
Do these prices include a paint pen or DIY kit?
These prices are for workshop paint repairs, not retail paint pens or kits. Contact us before travelling if you only need paint supplies. For repair enquiries, send your vehicle details and photos so we can discuss the work and suitable materials.
When can I wash, polish or protect the repaired area?
Follow the handover instructions for the paint system used. Collection time does not mean every wash, polish, wax, ceramic coating or PPF installation is immediately suitable. Ask us to confirm timing before treating the surface, particularly with matte or satin finishes.
