Paintless dent repair (PDR)
Paintless dent repair (PDR) pushes small dents out from behind the panel with special rods, or pulls them from the front with glued tabs, without filler or paint, so the car keeps its original paint. It works for hail damage, door dings in car parks and small dents where the paint is intact. It doesn't work when the paint is cracked, the dent is on a sharp edge or the metal is stretched: then you need classic bodywork and paint.
- How often
- When you have a small dent with the paint intact, for example after hail or a door opened into yours in a car park.
