Dent Repair, also referred to as PDR has several benefits over conventional body shop methods. You are probably asking what are conventional methods. They consist of grinding the dent, working the metal, then filling with a filler (bondo). Then the area is sanded, primed and then repainted. Instead of going through all those steps, you may want to choose PDR instead. Many dings, minor dents, minor collision damage and hail damage can be repaired by using Paintless dent repair. PDR cost less than conventional methods, most repairs are 1/3 of the cost. PDR is much faster than conventional methods, most dents and dings can be repaired in as little as an hour. Bigger dents and minor collision may take several hours, but still much faster than going through Body shop conventional methods. Hail damage can be repaired in as little as one day compared to days or even weeks by going with body shop methods. The biggest advantage to choosing PDR is that your factory finish is left intact and no worry of non-matching paint. Keeping your original paint, keeps the resale value of your vehicle up which is important when you go to sell or trade your vehicle in.
