Paintless dent repair vs. traditional

Paintless dent repair (PDR) uses specialized tools to massage dents out from behind the panel without disturbing the original factory paint. It works well on shallow dents where the paint isn't cracked, so most door dings and hail damage qualify. When the paint is cracked, stretched, or the dent is too deep, traditional bodywork (filler, sanding, prime, paint) is the right call. We inspect every dent and recommend the approach that's best for your vehicle and wallet.

Scratch repair

Light surface scratches often buff out with a compound and polish. Deeper scratches that go through the clear coat or into the color coat require spot repair and blending. Deep scratches that reach the primer or metal need full panel refinishing to look right. We can give you an honest assessment in minutes.

Questions & answers

Frequently asked

If you don't see your question, give us a call. We're happy to walk you through it.

No. Paintless dent repair works when the factory paint is still intact and the metal hasn't been stretched too far. If the paint is cracked or the dent is creased or severe, we'll need to do traditional bodywork and paint. We always tell you upfront which approach your dent needs.
