The work

About our dent removal

When you notice a dent from a shopping cart, a hailstone, or a careless door in a parking lot, your first thought is often about the cost and hassle of a repair. You want the damage gone without losing your car for days or dealing with a full repaint. That is exactly the situation where paintless dent removal comes in.

Our technicians start by inspecting the panel from both sides to map the dent's shape and depth. We then insert specialized metal rods between the inner structure and the outer skin. Using gentle, controlled pressure, we massage the metal back to its original contour. No filler, sanding, or paint is used, only precision hand tools and a careful eye.

The difficulty of a dent depends on its location, size, and the metal's condition. A shallow dent on a flat hood is straightforward, while one on a sharp body line or near a panel edge takes more skill and time. Hail damage with many small dents adds complexity. The paint must be intact, any cracking or chipping rules out PDR and requires traditional bodywork.

On the day of your appointment, we work in our shop with the vehicle safely positioned. We protect the interior and surrounding panels with clean covers. After the repair, we wipe down the area and inspect the finish. You do not need to do anything beforehand, just bring the car. Afterward, avoid washing the panel for 24 hours to let any residual stress settle.

PDR Rod Technique

We use long, curved steel rods to access the back of the panel through existing openings, never drilling or cutting the metal.

Glue Pulling Method

For dents on inner panels or tight spaces, we apply a hot-melt glue tab to the dent and pull outward with a slide hammer.
