Common Questions About Paintless Dent Repair
If you haven't heard of paintless Dent Repair, it's a special technique that uses specific tools to massage dents out of your vehicle without damaging the paint, so there's no need to repaint or use other chemicals. If you have heard about paintless Dent Repair but still have questions, you're in the right place. Below you will find some of the most common questions about paintless Dent Repair and their answers.
Can any dent be fixed with PDR?
Unfortunately not. To repair the dent, a technician needs to be able to access the dent from underneath with the special tools. If they can't reach the dent this way, they won't be able to repair it. In this case, you would need to find another dent repair service to use.
Will a dent ever return after it has been repaired?
No. Once the dent has been properly repaired, it will be gone for good. They only way for the dent to return is if you damage the vehicle in the same spot again.
Will the spot of the repair be noticeable?
If a minor dent is removed correctly, you will not be able to notice where the dent ever existed. The area will look brand new again. Even people with experience spotting repairs can't see it when you use PDR techniques. However, some larger dents may be faintly visible.
Will the same PDR service fix the paint damage as well?
Unless you choose a service that offers multiple repair services, most PDR services only focus on dent repair. You would need to find a different service to repair any paint damage you have. Your dent repair technician should be able to recommend a good paint repair service in the area.
How long will it take to repair the dent?
The time frame depends on many factors including the size and severity of the dent as well as where it's located. A minor dent can usually be repaired in under an hour. However, some may take a couple of hours to completely repair. This is still much less time than it would take in a body shop.
Will there by any damage to the vehicle during the repair?
While there is always a chance that your vehicle could sustain damage during the repair process, it is highly unlikely, especially with PDR. It's much more likely that your vehicle would be damaged in a body shop than with paintless dent repair techniques.
These are just some of the common questions people have about paintless dent repair. Hopefully you found the answers to any questions you had. If you didn't, you can always call a paintless dent repair service and ask them. Most are more then happy to answer any questions you may have about their service or the repair process in general.

How much is it for a dent repair?
Today, i was backing up my car and I accidentally bumped my classmates car. I drive an H3 and he drives a BMW 325. My tire made a small dent on the hood of the car right next to the BMW sign. The tire mark is visible and theres a minor and small dent. I am not going to be a gentleman and give him money for the repairs, but I want to know how much this type of dent would cost to repair. I want to know what repair method would be needed and how much should I pay my classmate back.
Today I backed up into my friends car accidentally, I have an H3 and he has a BMW 325. My tire was the part that hit his hood. It was the nose of the car, right next to the bmw sign. The tire marks are visible but the dent is small. I want an estimate as to how much it would cost to pay him back. I'm not going to be a coward, I am going to pay him back I just want to know how much (an approximate amount $$) and what methods of repair would be needed.

Can someone help me with a hail damage question?
My car was damaged to the tune of $2300 in a recent hail storm. We took it to the collision repair center for the estimate and we told the guy we currently didn't have the $500 for the deductible and that we weren't interested in getting it fixed. All they planned to do was the "paint-less dent repair" and I have heard bad things about it such as it causes the paint to crack and then you will have rust spots. Anyways, they issued the check out to my fiance and our bank and now the bank will not cash it unless we fix the car. The guy from my insurance co. that performed the inspection on the car said if we didn't want to fix it we could put it towards our car loan but the ins. adjuster said that's not true, we have to fix it. Also the car ins. is in my fiance's name and the car is in my name. I am just an "other insured" on the policy. Please help me to understand why they are forcing us to fix this car against our will?

cost of hail dent repair on car?
We had a bad storm today in Kansas and our car got hail damage on the hood, trunk, roof and a few on the drivers side. They range in sizes up to a quarter. I have a 2005 Chevy Malibu that is paid in full, I have a 500 dollar deductible and am wondering if it is even worth calling my insurance company. The paint isn't chipped, that I can tell. But the dents are there. Any ideas how much it costs to repair them, Im guessing there's around 50 dents maybe more. I know its impossible to give me an exact answer but Im just wondering what the cost is aprox.
