What Is PDR?
PDR stands for “Paintless Dent Removal.” Industry professionals often interchange “repair” with ‘removal,” but both terms refer to the same process of reshaping or sculpting metal back to its original condition using specialized tools that allow the technician to access the back side of the dent and gently reshape the metal to original factory condition and preserve the original factory finish of your vehicle.
What is a PDR Technician?
A PDR technician is a skilled artisan with a lot of patience and a good eye for detail. The technique is learned through hundreds of hours of practice. Commitment to the craft and to perfection are key to being a successful PDR technician.
Why Paintless Dent Removal?
Preserve the Value of Your Investment
PDR allows you to maintain the original factory finish on your vehicle, which preserves its value.
Save Time
PDR can often be completed the same day, sometimes while you wait for door dings and smaller dents. Hail repair is more extensive and typically takes one to three days depending on severity. Traditional body shops will take several weeks for a full hail repair.
Save Money
PDR is usually a fraction of the cost of traditional body shop repairs and it provides better results without replacement parts.
Environmentally Friendly
PDR eliminates the need for paints and other harsh chemicals used during conventional body shop repairs.
Preferred Method
PDR is the preferred method of hail repair by the insurance industry when appropriate.
