Paintless Dent Repair (PDR)
If the paint isn't broken, there's often no reason to repaint anything.
Paintless dent repair works the metal back into shape from behind the panel using specialized rods and light. It's faster and cheaper than a conventional repair, and it keeps your original factory finish — which matters when it's time to sell or trade.
What’s involved
Keeps the factory finish
No sanding, no filler, no clear coat. Original paint stays original.
Hail and parking lot damage
Ideal for the cluster of small dents a Knoxville hailstorm leaves across a hood and roof.
Often a same-day repair
Most PDR jobs are hours, not days.
Questions we get asked
- When does a dent NOT qualify for PDR?
- If the paint is cracked, chipped, or scraped down to primer, or if the metal is stretched or creased over a body line, the panel needs conventional repair and refinishing. We'll look at it and tell you which one it is.
- Is PDR cheaper than a body repair?
- Almost always, because it skips the filler, primer, paint, and clear coat steps entirely.
