paintless dent removal
 

can somebody share their experience with paintless dent removal.. I got this dimple on the middle of the driver side door, right on the body line that I wanted fixed.. I am looking at paintless dent removal.. I am just not sure if they can fix it like nothing happened..

Yup they can!! I had one on my car when I got it. They had it for a week, but when she came back you couldn't tell where it was. Mine was on the passenger side door right where yours is. They do magic!! :D

thanks for the info

I had one in my hood and it was pretty sharp. The guy came to my house and fixed it in 20 min and charged me $20. They are usually pretty strait forward about what they can and can not fix.

You're welcome!! I'm sorry I can't tell you more, but since it came off the lot that way the dealership handled all the details and price.

It's an art. Get the right person and you cannot tell where a properly fixed dent was in the first place. That is, if they say they can fix it. Some dents can't be done this way.

Yep had 4 taken out on the passenger side of my car.

Like said above it is an art. I do this as a second job and if you want someone to do it ensure they have the right tools and the experience with those tools. The rule with creases most of the time if the crease is not broken or crossed it can return. Most modern metals are forgiving.

a good PDR tech can do wonders! I have used the local guy here a few times on my tahoe and he never fails to amaze me!

i had one on my door on the body line and i found a guy that took it out in 30mins and he buffed out the scratch

I just had one removed, dealer over extended fuel door causing a crease in the fender. I didn't think they would be able to fix it, but now you can't tell there was ever a dent there.

I had 4 dents done 2 on the driver front fender next to the hood and 1 on each fender right above the Camaro letters. I can not see them now.

Just had two dings removed from passenger side door last week. Company showed up right on schedule and fixed it in the driveway. They were both right on the Crease. $100 and good as new. Years ago they used to say if they were on a bodyline, you were SOL and better head to the BodyShop.

Had quite a few small dents/dings removed! Quick, quality, and pretty cheap for what you get.....which is huge piece of mind that you have no more dents/dings!!

Had a large ding in the fender of my 4th Gen right in front of the rear wheel... about the only metal on the whole side of the car and some kid in a minivan found it.

Paintless took it out for about $75 and I could not see any trace of it after... and this was on a black car.

Highly recommended.

Just be sure to see a person with a good reputation. Bad workmanship can be in any profession.

Jeepers.... what is the fender made from that the plastic fuel door can bend the fender????

Question about PDR, will I still be able to have the dent fixed if its been there a while? I have one thats been there for almost 8 months and the other about 6 months now, never even heard of PDR until a little while after they happened(i must be living under a rock, I know) and don't even know of any around me.

If you're worried, ask a reputable body shop who they use for this type of "injury." I had one removed over the front driver's side tire...right on the crease. Can't even tell and I have IOM paint. My guy said as long as it wasn't down to the metal and rusted it would work.

Tried taking pics the day I found them to send to the DentRepairCompany before they came out. They didn't show up.:( Trust me they are there on the bodyline which you can't see as well.:facepalm: Sometimes a good wax job doesn't help.:laugh:

Yes it is returnable PDR has no time frame

Awesome, thanks :thumbup:

I'm one of those dent guys, I have my own PDR business. Love it! Removed 4 dents in mine (previous owner didn't mention to tell me about them after an 8 hour drive one way) All were on the body lines right on both doors. Got them out within a matter of minutes. :D

What part of Indiana you from?

I'm from the Anderson area

Cool, Indy area here.

I found a place locally just by Googling for about 30 minutes and looking at different places websites. The guys I decided upon did mostly high end cars and would do it while you wait. They also stressed the fact that if you didn't go with them, you need to insist on a place that does NOT drill to get to the dent. Apparently that can do all kinds of crazy crap to your car and cause rust and possible airbag damage and things like that. These guys did an amazing job and fixed my door dent in about 40 minutes. Charged me $60 and I was in and out before my work shift for the day.

Where in Indiana?

Looked up Anderson. If you are ever in the NW area send me a PM. I have a couple to fix. One on the hood and a couple on the cab above the rear seat. Hail dents from 3 years ago, only had the car 6 weeks. Swing by and make a couple $
