What is Paintless Dent Removal?
Paintless Dent Removal, PDR or Paintless Dent Repair, is a process for repairing panel damage on a vehicle without repainting or removing the original factory finish. By slowly and carefully massaging the dent from the back of the panel with specialized tools, small to large dents can be removed using this method. When carried out by a competent PDR technician, both the metal and paint are restored to the original condition.
PDR is also 100% environment friendly. No toxins, paint or fillers are used during this process. This is the preferred method of repair, as the original factory finish is preserved. With the manufactures paint being so flexible and resilient, minor damage is normally repairable within 1 hour.
PDR will cost less than the conventional Body shop repair, mainly due to the length of time it takes to repair the damaged panel and the fact that no consumables are necessary to obtain a quality finish.
When using a quality Paintless Dent Removal tech, this is the most affordable and effective way to remove a dent from a vehicle, restoring it back to showroom condition.
Repairs are often cheaper than a customer’s insurance excess, keeping premiums to a minimum.
