Actually this is not a paint job but some what of a protective coating people use to protect their vehicles from sandblasting and getting their paint jobs worn out. You would normally see them put liquid detergent on their hoods, or even grease! this trend is new, especially in saudi and qatar…looks like it caught on faster cuz people got sick of lemony smelling dish washing detergents!

This is cheaper… and actually looks better…

More practical, easier to remove and apply…

Yep…it’s both a style and a nice way to keep the car in good shape. One usually faces sand/dust storms when travelling long distances in Gulf nations and the sand flying against the cars chips the paint away from the front and this method (and another method of applying liquid detergent such as Lux or Fairy) helps keep the car’s paint the way it is.

I wonder what happened to car bras…

Guys, its simple, you take it to a station somewhere along the border in Saudi, what they do is they put like a little layer of water droplets on the car, then blast on some really reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally fine sand on to it. Thats what gives it the mud effect, the sand then sticks to the car body, just like when your baking with flour and u have some water on ur hands. This just protects the car from chips, bugs, bigger sand particles and so on when travelling on a highway or cross country. Trust me it does wonders and is much better than the fairy thing people use cause it takes away some of the car shine. Whats amazing is that even when your doing 200+ the sand wont fly off the car and all you do when you pull into your destination is just hose down the car. People even cover the entire windshield and use the wipers so they can see thru, I swear this ugly look for a 4 hour ride does wonders to your paint job. I recommend it! :P

I had to drive frequently to wafra to visit Joint Operations (Oil company in Wafra) and after a year there was no paint left on the company car, got fined a few times because the license plate was silver and you could’nt tell if the the lights were on at night. So for people who frquently travel through saudi this is a damn good option to keep your car in shape, and legal for that matter.

It’s paint protection used for cars who travel long distances across the desert. Usually its for a car going to travel or a car which just came back from a long trip.

Neither do I. I’ve seen it here too and it’s just absolutely hideous.
