Paintless Dent Repair
Dents and dings massaged out from behind the panel, with no sanding, filler or repainting. Your factory finish stays intact.
Paintless dent repair (PDR) removes dents by slowly working the metal back into shape from behind the panel with specialized rods and light boards. Because nothing is sanded, filled or repainted, your vehicle keeps its original factory paint. Most single dents take 30 minutes to a few hours, and PDR usually costs one-quarter to one-third of a conventional body-shop repair.
Paintless dent repair is the only thing we do in our shops. We are not a collision center, so there is no filler, no repainting and no drilling on your vehicle. Our Vale-certified master technicians read each dent under LED and line boards, then push and glue-pull the metal back to its original shape.
PDR works on most dents where the paint is not cracked: door dings, shopping-cart hits, minor creases, bodyline dents and hail damage. Steel and most aluminum panels respond well. Very sharp creases, cracked paint and plastic bumpers may still need traditional bodywork, and we will tell you honestly before any work starts.

Questions
Paintless Dent Repair FAQ
How much does paintless dent repair cost?
PDR is typically one-quarter to one-third the cost of a conventional dent repair because no paint, filler or panel replacement is needed. Price depends on the dent's size, depth, location and the panel material. Send photos or stop by for a free estimate.
Will the dent come back after PDR?
No. Once the metal is properly reshaped, the dent does not return unless the panel is damaged again.
Is PDR safe for my paint?
Yes. PDR never sands or repaints the panel, so your factory finish stays exactly as it left the factory.
