Vehicle Arrival

Some factory matte finishes look incredible—but they're also among the most difficult paints to maintain.

This brand-new GAC Empow S arrived at TreatMyCar.ae straight from the showroom, ready for long-term protection before facing the harsh UAE environment.

The owner's goal was simple.

Keep the factory matte finish looking exactly as it did on day one.

Protection begins before the first scratch.

Vehicle Inspection

Every Detail Matters

Before any protection is installed, every panel is inspected under professional lighting.

We check the paint condition, transportation marks, panel alignment, and surface contamination.

A flawless installation always starts with proper preparation.

Safe Decontamination Wash

Preparing The Surface

Even a zero-meter vehicle collects contamination during transport and storage.

The vehicle received a complete safe wash and paint decontamination to remove embedded particles before film installation.

Because Paint Protection Film should only be installed on a perfectly clean surface.

Why Matte PPF?

Preserve The Factory Finish

Unlike gloss protection films, Matte Paint Protection Film maintains the original satin appearance without adding unwanted shine.

It protects while keeping the factory design exactly as intended.

No color change.

No extra gloss.

Just invisible protection.
