What we do here

Studio work, with the price on it.

Starting prices for the work this studio is set up for. Final figures are confirmed in writing after we see the paint, because a garaged car and one that has been through automatic brushes are not the same job. Periodic servicing, AC, suspension and brakes are done here too — and A3 Dombivli runs the same full range on Kalyan-Shil Road.

9H ceramic coating

Multi-layer coating over corrected paint, applied in an enclosed bay away from the body side of the plot so nothing settles into the cure. More gloss, easier washing, and bird lime and water spots that lift before they etch.

9H ceramic coating, multi-year warranty
₹14,999/-
10H graphene matrix coating
₹21,999/-

Self-healing TPU paint protection film

Thermoplastic polyurethane that recovers from swirls and light scratches with heat. Full body, front end, or the high-impact panels only — bonnet, bumper, mirrors, door edges and the boot lip where luggage lands.

Self-healing TPU PPF, front-end kit bonnet, bumper, mirrors
₹45,000/-

Paint correction

Machine polishing to remove swirl marks and oxidation before any coating goes on. Paint depth is measured first, because polishing paint you do not have is not a saving. Coating over uncorrected paint just seals the defects in.

3-stage paint correction & swirl removal
₹4,499/-

Interior steam sanitisation

Steam extraction for fabric and carpets, pH-correct treatment for leather, and a full cabin decontamination including the vents — which is what actually fixes a monsoon smell rather than a fragrance sprayed over it.

Deep interior steam & AC duct ozone treatment
₹2,499/-

Spray booth denting & painting

Panel work finished in a computerised spray booth on the same plot, so a car in for coating that turns out to need a panel straightened walks across the yard rather than being booked into a second workshop on a second day.

₹2,499/- per panel

Sun film, accessories & servicing

Garware heat-rejection film fitted within legal visible-light-transmission limits, seat covers and trim, plus multi-brand periodic servicing, AC, suspension and brakes. Quoted after inspection, never before.

Every figure above is a starting price. The final number moves with the size and condition of the car, the products you choose and the finish you want — a two-stage paint correction and a five-stage one are not the same job, and a leatherette seat cover and a Napa one are not the same material. You get the exact figure in writing after inspection, and we do not start work until you have agreed it.

Had an accident? It is repaired here.

Accident damage, cashless insurance claims and booth painting are handled at these premises by Grand Automotive Service Centre, our bodyshop division. Sixteen insurers have marked it a preferred workshop, and we deal with insurers beyond those sixteen as well. Our Dombivli studio handles accident and cashless work too, and has its own paint booth.

We are a repairer, not an insurance intermediary. Cover, excess and approval are your insurer's decision, not ours. Preferred status and network tie-ups can change, so we confirm yours before work starts.


Non-franchise

Why enthusiasts end up here.

Our own commitments, not a claim about anyone else. Ask whoever else you are considering the same four questions — the answers tell you more than a quote does.

What we commit to. Where another studio stands is for them to tell you.
What mattersA3 PanvelWorth asking anywhere
Who does the work You speak to the applicator handling your car, not a counter that relays it. Non-franchise, so there is no royalty line built into what you pay. Ask who is actually applying the coating, and whether you can speak to them.
Preparation before coating Paint depth measured, then corrected to the stage the paint can take. Coating over uncorrected paint seals the swirls in permanently. Ask whether paint depth is measured, and what happens if the paint is too thin to correct.
Dents before film Panel beaters and a spray booth are on this plot, so a dent found at prep is fixed before the film goes on rather than wrapped over. Ask what happens if they find a dent under the dirt on the day of your PPF booking.
Lighting and environment Enclosed, controlled-lighting bay. Defects you cannot see under a work light are defects you will see in sunlight the following week. Ask to see the bay the car will actually be worked in, before you book.

Straight answers

What people ask before booking.

How much does PPF cost in Panvel?

Self-healing TPU paint protection film starts at Rs 45,000 here, and the final figure is driven by panel count and panel shape rather than by the car's badge. A front-end kit - bonnet, bumper, mirrors, headlights - is a different job from a full body, and complex bumpers and deep-curved bonnets take more film and more time than the same panel on a flat-sided hatch. Send us the make, model and year on WhatsApp with what you want covered and we come back with a range. If the paint needs correction first we tell you that before quoting, because film locks in whatever is underneath it.

Is ceramic coating better than PPF for Navi Mumbai weather?

They solve different problems, and the honest answer for this coast is usually both. Ceramic coating is chemical protection - it resists the bird lime, tree sap, industrial fallout and hard-water spotting that etch paint here, and it makes the car far easier to wash through a Mumbai monsoon. It does nothing against a stone chip. PPF is physical protection - a self-healing film thick enough to absorb chips and light scratches, which is why the sensible spend on a car doing highway miles is film on the front end and coating over the rest. We will tell you which one your car actually needs rather than selling you the bigger number.

How do I claim cashless insurance at your Panvel bodyshop?

Send us photos of the damage and your policy schedule on WhatsApp before you move the car. We confirm whether your insurer is cashless with us, raise the claim intimation, and bring the surveyor to the car here so you never queue at an insurance office. Sixteen insurers have marked us a preferred workshop and we handle cashless claims for others too. You pay only your own share - the compulsory deductible set by IRDAI, any voluntary deductible, depreciation on replaced parts and consumables - and we put those numbers in front of you before work starts. We are a repairer, not an insurance intermediary: cover and approval are your insurer's decision.

Do you offer a warranty on paint protection film?

The film warranty comes from the manufacturer, on their terms, and we hand you that document rather than describing it to you. It normally covers yellowing, cracking and delamination for a stated number of years, requires correct aftercare, and does not cover accident damage, chemical damage or normal wear. Separately from the manufacturer, our own installation is our responsibility - if an edge lifts or a panel was fitted badly, bring it back with the invoice and we will put it right.

How long does a ceramic coating take?

It depends almost entirely on the paint correction beforehand, not the coating itself. A car needing a single-stage correction is usually a shorter job than one needing multi-stage. We inspect the paint, tell you which it needs, and give you a delivery date before you leave the car.

How long does a ceramic coating last?

It depends on the product you choose, where the car is parked and how it is washed — a car that lives outdoors and goes through automatic brushes will not hold what a garaged car holds. We will tell you the coating manufacturer's stated life and warranty terms before you choose, so you are picking on facts rather than on a number we made up.

Is PPF or ceramic coating better for my car?

They do different jobs. PPF is a physical film that absorbs stone chips and light scratches. Ceramic coating is chemical protection that makes the surface easier to clean and keeps the gloss. Many owners fit PPF on the front end and coat the rest. We will tell you what your car actually needs rather than selling you both by default.

What shade of sun film is legal?

Indian rules set minimum visible light transmission limits for windscreens and side windows, and we fit within them. We will show you what is permitted before you pick a shade, because a film that gets you stopped is not a saving.

Do you only do detailing at Panvel?

No. Panvel and Dombivli both do the full range — detailing and paint protection, accessories, mechanical servicing, and accident and cashless insurance work. Both premises have their own paint booth. Come to whichever is closer to you.

Do you work on luxury and imported cars?

Yes, and on a Nano too. The process, the written quote and the care are identical. Nothing about how we work changes based on the badge.

What aftercare does a coated car need?

A coating makes the surface easier to clean; it does not remove the need to wash the car. You get written aftercare with the car — what to use, what to avoid, and how soon you can wash it after collection. Where the coating you choose carries a manufacturer warranty, that aftercare is also what its terms ask for.

Can I get a price without bringing the car in?

Send photos on WhatsApp with your car's make, model and year and what you want done. We will give you a range. For coating and correction we usually need to see the paint in person before we can be exact, and we will say so rather than quote blind.
