How to change the color of a car in the UAE?

Changing the color of your car in the United Arab Emirates is a process that requires attention to detail and compliance with certain rules. In this article we will tell you what you need to know if you decide to change the look of your car in Dubai or another emirate.

1. Choosing the color and method of painting

First of all, decide on a new body color. The fashion for car colors is constantly changing and often depends on the season. Therefore, it is better to choose a color based on your personal preferences, because modern technology allows you to create a unique shade by mixing a variety of colors.

Next, you have to make an equally important choice – to decide on the method of color change. You can choose traditional painting, vinyl film or the innovative Peelable Paint method. Let’s take a closer look at each method. Painting with a special colored compound from a paint gun gives a durable effect, allows you to achieve the desired shade by mixing different colors, is a relatively low-cost service, but if you want to return the original color, the process of removing the paint from the body will be extremely time-consuming and costly.

Compared to it, vinyl film allows you to easily and quickly return the original color, and the process of pasting does not take much time, a dense layer of film also effectively protects the car from the negative external effects (UV rays, sand, shallow scratches from mechanical damage, etc.). Another method of color change – Peelable Paint, it is increasingly gaining popularity, because the composition is sprayed on the body and after drying creates a dense elastic layer on the original paintwork, which protects the body from external influences, while there are no joints on it, and the probability of damaging the lacquer is reduced to zero. One of its most important advantages is the ease of removal, the film can be peeled off by hand.

2. Find a trusted service and get the necessary paperwork done

Most importantly, contact professionals to avoid costly remediation after a substandard service. Changing the color of your car also requires notification of local authorities. Before and immediately after the procedure is completed, you will need to contact the Department of Motor Vehicles (RTA) first to obtain a permit, then to make changes to the registration documents. The process is quite simple, it involves 4 steps:
