What is Paintless Dent Repair and is it for me?

If your car has small dents that haven’t broken or blemished the paint, then it’s worth considering paintless dent repair (PDR) as a service to repair them.  The certified auto body technician uses specialized tools to work out the dent from the inside of the car’s paneling, which allows the painting process to be eliminated from the process. Here are some good reasons to choose paintless dent removal and why it may be the route to take for your repair needs.

It’s a faster Result

The auto painting process can take a good amount of time to finish due to the processes involved. Paint has to be prepped, painted, and dried to say it in short. With these processes bypassed, you can get your vehicle back in a lot less time, allowing you to get back to your normal routine.

Its more affordable – keep money in your pocket with car repairs

By skipping the painting process, your labor and materials costs will be significantly lower. With these savings, it makes it worth the money to go ahead and fix small dents that will bring your car back to looking new again.

Hail Damage cases are key candidates for PDR

If your car gets caught in a hailstorm, it could suffer several dents. Paintless dent repair is often the best option for repairing hail damage and is usually recommended…again as long as the paint has no blemishes. Some hailstorms can be very large that may result in needing new paint, but in most hail damage cases PDR will usually do the job.

Looking to sell your car and it has minor dents?

If you’re planning on putting your car up for sale anytime soon, you’ll want to make sure it looks sharp for the photos that will be posted online. A dented exterior will likely turn off potential buyers, and could even make them assume that the car’s mechanical components are also in rough shape. However, with an exterior that is sleek and dent-free, it’s more likely that you’ll get a strong response to your ad. It’s worth the small investment to getting them fixed giving you a better chance to get top dollar.

A Green repair option

When you don’t need auto painting, the associated chemicals won’t have the opportunity to be released into the surrounding groundwater or air. Most auto body shops use environmental paint products these days however PDR eliminates any auto paint waste all together.
