The Paintless Dent Removal (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. Good candidates for this process include:

If your damage consists of smooth, shallow dings, dents, and creases ranging in diameter from dime-sized to basketball-sized; and/or dents in plastic bumpers that have no holes, tears, or paint damage and are still fully affixed to the vehicle, the PDR process would be the ideal solution.

In the past, most owners of new or high-end vehicles were reluctant to pay the expense and endure the inconvenience of having their minor dings and dents repaired at traditional body shops. PDR is rapidly becoming the desired body shop alternative. With the PDR process, certified technicians can now perform repairs with body shop quality in a fraction of the time and at a lower cost than with conventional body shop repair work.

Using innovative tools and the latest in state-of-the-art technology, expert technicians are able to massage the damaged area to restore it to its original body-line. With a basic knowledge of plastic and metal properties, certified technicians can transform the damaged area back to its original condition without the need for costly body fillers, sanding and painting typically used by traditional body repair shops.

Areas that cannot be repaired using the PDR process include:   

• 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;   
• Dents with paint damage (cracked or broken paint)   
• Metal / Chrome bumpers.

The PDR process is clean and environmentally safe. It eliminates the use and disposal of paints and chemicals typically used in the conventional metal repair process.
