What Is PDR?

Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) is rapidly revolutionizing the world of ding and dent repair. The PDR process is the art of removing minor dings, dents, and creases from a vehicle, while maintaining the integrity of the factory or custom paint finish. It provides virtually undetectable repairs to the non-collision minor damages vehicles experience daily, in a fraction of the time and at approximately one-third of the cost of traditional body repair shops.

If the damage is too severe or paint damage is involved, such as sharp dings, dents, and creases that have been stretched too deep; areas reinforced with double metal such as the edges of a vehicle’s doors, hood, and trunk; damage on the edge of a body panel; and / or dents with extensive paint damage (cracked or broken paint), the PDR process may no longer be a viable option.

Many dents and dings can now be repaired without a trace, when the work is performed by a skilled technician. And techniques have developed to the point that dings can be removed with the original paint in place.

Using innovative tools and cutting edge technology, these expert technicians provide quality repairs second to none. Dent Specialists International’s associates offer a rapid turnaround, exceptional pricing, and a guarantee on all workmanship.

What Can Be Fixed?

Paintless dent repair is very effective for the following situations:

  • From very small to large dents;
  • Generally 1990 model year and newer vehicles;
  • The paint has not been broken or cracked;
  • The dent is not near the edge of a panel;
  • The panel has not had previous body repair.

PDR is so effective for hail damage that some insurance companies use “hail teams” that “chase hail.” These teams travel to an area that was hit by hail to repair vehicle damage using PDR techniques.
