Andy's Dent Repair has been at the forefront of the development of cutting–edge paintless dent removal (PDR) technologies. Our exclusive PDR processes do not conceal body damage: they remove them altogether. The vehicle finish is flawless. Dents, dings, creases, hail damage and other minor body flaws are all painstakingly removed to restore vehicles to their original values and appearance.
The technology of PDR has been around for many years, and has become popularly adopted for such purposes as lease return, auction preparation, rental car maintenance, and increasingly, consumer vehicle repair. Consequently, consumer-level awareness of the techniques has increased in recent years
The most common practical use for PDR is the repair of hail damage, door dings, minor body creases, and minor bumper indentations. The techniques can also be applied to help prepare the damaged panel for paint. Such applications are referred to as “push to paint”, or “push for paint”.
The most common methods of paintless dent repair utilise metal rods and body picks to push the dents out from the underside of the body panel. Additionally, glue and a specially designed tab may be used from the outside of the panel to pull the dents out. In either case, fine-tuning of the repair often involves “tapping” down the repair to remove small high spots, or shrink the metal, making the surface flat. Paintless Dent Repair may be used on both aluminium and steel panels. If an inexperienced technician pushes too hard when creating these high spots, the paint will split and the repair is ruined. Our quality technicians at Andy’s Dent Repairs can use these high spots that are barely visible to match the texture of the paint.
Paintless dent removal takes time to learn, it is more of an art than a specific set of skills. The ability to successfully remove dents and dings is learned through trial and error. An untrained individual can actually damage a dent if attempting a repair without the correct skills and knowledge. At Andy’s dent Repairs we have developed this art into a refined technique, remember…We’re experts in our field.
You can but you could potentially cause more damage which a PDR tecnician will charge you more to remedy, any dents that show signs of a DIY attempted repair (typically high spots near or around the dent) will incur an extra charge because of the time involved in tidying it up. PDR is a complex and extremely difficult skill to learn, it takes many years to master and most trainees will give up in frustration even after months of practising because they just can’t get to grips with it.
