02 — What we do

Everything the paint needs, in the order it needs it.

Correction before coating, coating before film — get the sequence wrong and you seal in the defects you paid to remove.

01

Paint Protection Film

3M Scotchgard Pro over the panels that take the hits — nose, mirrors, sills, door edges. Self-healing top coat, optically clear, removable without touching the factory paint.

  • Self-healing
  • Full & front-end
  • Genuine 3M
02

Ceramic Coating

A bonded glass layer over corrected paint. Gloss climbs, dust and sand release under a rinse, and the Omani sun stops flattening the colour by year two.

  • Hydrophobic
  • UV stable
  • On corrected paint
03

Auto Detailing

Inside and out. Extraction through seats and carpets, leather cleaned and fed rather than dressed, and every exterior surface decontaminated before anything is applied over it.

  • Interior & exterior
  • Seat shampooing
  • Clay bar
04

Paint Repair

Swirls, wash marks and dealer-inflicted holograms cut back under measured light. We read the paint depth first — correction removes clear coat, so it is done once, properly.

  • Depth-gauged
  • Machine polish
  • Scratch repair
05

Window Tinting

3M window film rated by heat rejection, not just how dark it looks. Cooler cabin, less load on the air conditioning, and honest advice on what is legal in Oman.

  • Heat rejection
  • UV block
  • Legal-compliant

03 — What is actually on your paint

Six layers. Only one is replaceable.

Factory clear coat is roughly 40–50 microns — thinner than a sheet of paper, and every polish takes some of it away for good. Everything AutoFutex applies sits above it, so the panel underneath is never the thing being worn down.

  1. 150 µmPaint protection filmWe apply thisSacrificial. Takes the stone chips so the clear coat never does.
  2. 2 µmCeramic coatingWe apply thisGlass-hard, hydrophobic. Where the gloss and the easy rinse come from.
  3. 40 µmClear coatFactory. Finite — every correction spends a little of it.
  4. 15 µmBase coatThe colour itself. No refinishing without a respray.
  5. 35 µmPrimerAdhesion and corrosion barrier.

04 — Why authorised matters

The film is the cheap part.

The difference shows up in year three, not on the invoice.

Unbranded film, unbranded shop

  • Film yellows and clouds under Gulf UV
  • Lifting edges at panel gaps within a season
  • Adhesive that takes the clear coat with it
  • No warranty anyone will honour
  • Coating applied straight over swirls — sealed-in defects

AutoFutex · 3M Pro Shop Dealer

  • Genuine 3M film with a documented UV rating
  • Wrapped and tucked edges, cut off the car
  • Removable years later without paint damage
  • Manufacturer-backed warranty
  • Correction first — coating only over paint that is ready

Also in the bay

  • Car waxing

    Hand-applied wax for cars not going the full coating route.

  • Clay bar treatment

    Bonded contamination pulled off the paint before any polish or coating.

  • Engine detailing

    Bay cleaned and dressed — the first thing a buyer opens.

  • Seat shampooing

    Hot extraction through fabric seats and carpets. Stains and odour, not just the surface.

  • Underbody coating

    Sealed against salt, sand and the wet season on the coast road.

  • Headlight protection

    Clear film over lenses — stone chip and UV yellowing stopped at the surface.

“Took the Land Cruiser in for front-end PPF before a Salalah run. Came back through 900km of grit with nothing in the paint.”

“They read the paint depth before touching it and told me the bonnet had already been polished flat by someone else. First shop that has ever been straight with me.”

“Ceramic on a black Defender in Muscat sounded optimistic. Two summers in and a rinse still takes the dust straight off.”

07 — Questions

The things people ask before they book.

A front-end kit is a full day. A full-body wrap is three to four days, because every panel is templated, wrapped and left to set — rushing the tuck is what causes lifting edges later. PLACEHOLDER: confirm timing for your vehicle when you book.

Almost always. A coating is optically clear and locks in whatever is under it, so applying one over swirls makes them permanent for the life of the coating. We inspect under light first and tell you honestly what the paint needs.

Genuine 3M film is UV-stabilised and warranted against yellowing. Unbranded film is where the horror stories come from — that is the whole reason the Pro Shop Dealer authorisation exists.

Yes, when it was fitted correctly on original paint. Removal is heat and patience. Film fitted over a cheap respray is a different conversation, and we will tell you before we start rather than after.

It depends on the panel count, the paint's condition and the film grade — which is why every job starts with an inspection rather than a price list. Send us the model and year on WhatsApp and we will give you a range the same day.

Ghala for film, wraps and anything multi-day. Qurm for coating, detailing and maintenance visits. If you are not sure, message us the job and we will route you.
