Once the best method and tools are determined (paintless dent removal technicians will usually only use a fraction of their tools on each dent) the tools will be inserted and the dent will carefully be massaged out. An experienced technician will be upfront and warn of repairs that will not be 100%. If a dent is in a difficult crease, has pointed or jagged punctures, paint problems, or similar issues it will not be perfect. Paintless dent repair is just that – they do not repair paint or do traditional bodywork. There are instances where traditional bodywork is the only option, but for most simple dents and dings paintless dent repair is a Godsend.
Paintless dent repair (aka PDR) usually ends in a repair where the naked eye cannot see it was ever there. PDR is also so effective that most major auto insurance companies will cover most if not all of the cost. It lowers the amount of their claims and there is no need for a rental car as there would be for traditional bodywork as cars can be at a body shop for weeks. PDR only takes a hour or so and the usual cost is around $40 to $75 per dent (this does depend on the number of dents to be repaired and their relative complexity).

You can find professional paintless dent repair franchises and jobbers in almost every city or town in the U.S. One of the best is Dent Wizard and you can look them up in your local phonebook or Google them for their location and to set up an appointment. Most large new and used car dealerships have agreements with a nationwide dent repair franchise whom comes in once or twice a week and fixes all their necessary or requested dents on their retail cars. So, you can also usually find a good PDR technician at your local car dealership if you can’t find one in your phonebook or close enough through Google. When pricing your car’s dents or dings it is important to keep in mind that some more difficult dents or extensive problems like hail damage will cost more as it can include many little dings and dents. Regardless, the price will be far lower than going to a traditional body shop and the quality of work will be just as good. Just avoid a newly trained tech with limited experience by asking for references and their guarantee (this is easily accomplished by sticking to the major franchises like Dent Wizard whom guarantee their work and that you will be 100% satisfied with the results). Now you know you don’t have to let that new dent ruin your pride in your car or truck and you can get it fixed very reasonably with paintless dent removal (PDR).
