Liberty Car Care
After filling up your car at the petrol station, how about giving your trusty four wheels an extra treat with a deluxe grooming session? Sited in Muroor Road at the ADNOC petrol station, Liberty Car Care provides an extensive array of services to keep your car gleaming. Using top of the line cleaning products imported from the UK and US, Liberty Car Care is serious when it comes to cleaning. We particularly like the paint polish and sealant, which claims to seals your paint job from damage caused by UV rays, saline sand and dew, and excessive heat. A normal polish is expected to last for approximately three months while a sealant is quoted for six months, depending on driving styles and car storage. For cars coloured grey or black, expect to pay slightly more for shine treatments. Prices vary depending on services, car size and colour. Open weekdays from 9am to 10pm and Friday from 2pm to 10pm.

Clean Middle East
We can’t help but love the Clean Middle East car washing services. Find it in a variety of mall car parks; we simply park our dusty wheels and return after a few hours of shopping to find a gleaming car in its place.
What could be more impressive than this? The ecological benefits. The vision of promoting a greener and cleaner Middle East allows cars to get washed while using absolutely no water. The natural cleaning solution, made of essential oils, has no chemicals and is applied to the car with a special air spray pump.
Saloon cars take an average of 25 to 30 minutes while 4x4s take around 30 to 40 minutes. Locations where Clean Middle East services are offered include: Marina Mall, Mazyad Mall, Abu Dhabi Mall, Central Market Souk, Carrefour on Airport Road and Al Bawadi Mall in Al Ain. Cleaning services range from AED 30 to AED 40 at Marina Mall and AED 25 to AED 35 at the other locations. For more information visit: www.binmurshedholding.com
