What is paintless dent repair?
Paintless dent repair (PDR) is a way to remove dents without repainting. A trained tech uses metal rods and special lights to slowly push the dent out from behind the panel until the metal is flat again. Your original factory paint stays on the car. Most door dings take under an hour. PDR works when the paint is not cracked or chipped.

The Process
How Paintless Dent Repair Works.
Look at the Dent
Dean checks the panel, the paint, and whether he can reach behind it. If it needs paint, he'll tell you straight.
Get Behind the Panel
He goes in through a factory access hole or by removing a door panel or trim. No cutting and no drilling.
Push the Dent Out
Using PDR rods and a light board, he works the metal back to shape, reading the reflection to keep it flat.
The Factory Paint Stays
The dent is gone. Your original paint is still there. No filler, no color match, no paint booth.
The Difference
PDR vs. a Body Shop.
| Paintless Dent Repair | Traditional Body Shop | |
|---|---|---|
| Original factory paint | Kept | Sanded and repainted |
| Body filler | None | Often used |
| Typical time | Minutes to a few hours | Often several days |
| Color match risk | None | Possible |
| Cost | Usually lower | Usually higher (labor, paint, materials) |
| Resale value | Protected — no paintwork shows up on inspection | Repaint can show up in paint depth checks |
If the paint is cracked or the metal is torn, a body shop is the right call. Dean will tell you which one you need.
