Frequently asked questions
Where can I get my car polished in Tbilisi?
AutoAura offers professional car polishing in Tbilisi, Georgia. Send a request online and we'll contact you with a recommendation and price estimate.
What's the difference between polishing and paint correction?
Polishing mainly improves gloss and reduces light defects. Paint correction is more intensive, multi-stage work to reduce defects as much as safely possible.
How much does detailing cost?
Price depends on vehicle size, condition and the chosen service. We'll give an accurate quote after inspection or based on photos.
Is ceramic coating worth it?
If you want easier maintenance and longer-lasting gloss, a coating is a good choice. It isn't permanent and doesn't stop stone chips.
How do I book?
Fill in the booking form on the site. After receiving your request we'll contact you to confirm a time.
Can every scratch be removed?
No. Surface defects often correct well, but deep scratches may need other repairs. We discuss this upfront.
How long does a service take?
It depends on the service and the vehicle's condition, and is confirmed when booking.
Can you estimate from photos?
Yes, photos help with a preliminary estimate, though the final price may be confirmed in person.
Car Polishing
How often should I polish my car?
Polishing removes a small amount of clear coat, so it shouldn't be done often. In most cases it's done as needed, combined with proper washing and protection.
Will polishing remove all scratches?
No. Polishing reduces surface defects. Deep scratches that go through the clear coat may need other repair methods.
How is polishing different from waxing?
Polishing refines the surface itself; wax only adds a temporary layer on top.
Paint Correction
What are swirl marks?
Fine circular scratches in the clear coat that look like a spider web in sunlight, usually caused by improper washing and drying.
Will paint correction remove every scratch?
No. Deep scratches may only be reduced or may need other repairs. We always tell you what's realistic beforehand.
How is correction different from polishing?
Correction is more intensive and multi-stage, aiming to reduce as many defects as possible; polishing focuses more on gloss.
Interior Detailing
How long does the interior take to dry?
It depends on the material and weather. Fabric may need a few hours to dry fully.
Can you remove every stain?
Many stains clean well, but some old or chemical stains may only be reduced.
Is it safe for leather?
Yes, leather is cleaned with gentle methods and suitable products.
Exterior Detailing
How is this different from a regular car wash?
It's done by hand with paint-safe methods and includes decontamination and protection.
What is a clay bar treatment?
A special clay lifts bonded particles, leaving the surface smooth.
How often is it recommended?
It depends on use; many drivers choose seasonal detailing combined with regular washing.
Ceramic Coating
How long does a ceramic coating last?
It depends on the product, preparation, use and maintenance. We only quote a timeframe once the specific product is chosen.
Does it protect against scratches?
It adds slight resistance to light marring but doesn't protect against stone chips or deep scratches.
Is polishing needed before ceramic coating?
Usually yes — the coating locks in whatever condition the paint is in when applied.
Headlight Restoration
Why do headlights turn yellow?
Mainly from UV exposure and the environment, which degrade the lens's outer layer.
How long does restoration last?
It depends on the protective layer and conditions. We don't promise a specific timeframe.
Can every headlight be restored?
No. Internal moisture, cracks or damaged reflectors can't be fixed by restoration.
Car Painting & Paintwork
How much does car painting cost in Tbilisi?
It depends on the vehicle make and model, the panel, the severity of damage, the paint type and the scope of work. An exact price is formed after an assessment — send a request for a personalized estimate.
Can you paint individual car panels?
Yes — often painting only the damaged panel is enough. During the assessment we determine whether adjacent areas need blending for a consistent color transition.
Can you match the original factory paint color?
The color is selected using the vehicle's paint code and an assessment, but a 100% match on aged paint is impossible. Where needed, we use blending techniques for a smooth transition.
Plastic Repair & Restoration
Can scratched car plastic be repaired?
Many minor scratches and cosmetic imperfections can be improved. The appropriate repair method depends on the plastic material and the severity of the damage.
Can faded black plastic trim be restored?
In many cases, faded exterior plastic trim can be treated to improve its appearance. The result depends on the condition and type of plastic.
Can a cracked plastic bumper be repaired?
Some plastic bumper damage may be repairable. The component must first be inspected to determine whether repair is appropriate or replacement is necessary.
