Q. What is the benefits of Paintless Dent Repairs
The most important benefit is the quality. This method is the closest you can get to the damage never having occurred in the first place. No grinding, bondo, fillers, or primers are needed because your original factory paint is not disturbed. There is no risk of problems with filler or paint shrinkage months after the repair as can occur with some body shop repairs. Cost is also a major benefit of Paintless dent repair. An estimate for a minor dent repair using PDR is typically a fraction of the cost of a traditional body shop repair. Time savings is yet another advantage. That same dent can be fixed in 30 minutes to a few hours versus a body shop which can take 3 – 5 days or longer.
Q. Will my dent damage be factory finished after repair
Q. Can any dents be fixed
No. The most important factors in determining if a dent can be repaired by PDR are depth and location. Dents the size of a dinner plate or larger can be fixed successfully, as long as they are not too deep. On the other hand, some dents that are as small as a dime but very deep, cannot be fixed using PDR because the metal is too stretched. Cracked paint can also be an indication that a dent is too deep. The most common dents fixed are the size of a golf ball and under. 95% of minor dents can be repaired. About 5% of minor dents can’t be fixed due to depth or location.
