Frequently asked questions
PDR, also known as Paintless Dent Repair or Paintless Dent Removal, is the method used to repair hail damage, door dings, body creases, and minor dents on a vehicle. As its name suggests, PDR does not involve any paint or fillers. Compared to standard dent repair, paintless dent repair restores a vehicle to like-new condition in a way that is faster, less expensive, and even more environmentally friendly.
Highly-skilled technicians use specialized tools like body picks and metal rods to push the dent out from the inside.
The next step involves gaining access to the back side of the dent. Parts of the vehicle, such as headlamps,and headliners may have to be temporarily removed to access the car panel. Once there is a clear pathway to the dent, the process can begin.
Slow pressure is used to gently push the dent outward and restore the exterior to its original condition. It might sound simple, but PDR is a carefully honed craft. That’s because without the required training, an amateur could easily push too hard and cause the dent to bulge outward.
