New Car Owners Alert

Your First Highway Drive Is the Most Dangerous for Your Paint

Most paint damage doesn’t come after years of driving. It starts on your very first highway trip — when your car is still new and unprotected.

Why Highways Are So Harsh on New Paint

At highway speeds, your car faces constant impact from sand, dust, small stones, and debris — all hitting fresh clear coat at high velocity.

  • Rock chips on bumper and hood
  • Sand abrasion across paint surface
  • Headlight pitting
  • Mirror and A-pillar impacts
One highway drive can cause more damage than weeks of city driving.

What Happens Without Protection

  • Micro chips form immediately
  • Clear coat starts weakening
  • Dust scratches during washing
  • Paint depth slowly degrades
  • Damage becomes visible within months

What PPF Does Instead

  • Absorbs impacts from stones
  • Shields against sand abrasion
  • Blocks harmful UV rays
  • Self-heals light scratches
  • Keeps factory paint intact

Why This Is Critical in the UAE

UAE roads combine high speeds, desert sand, and extreme heat — making highways one of the harshest environments for automotive paint.

  • Constant exposure to sand particles
  • High-speed Sheikh Zayed & E11 highways
  • Strong UV all year round
  • More visible wear on dark colors
