Paintless dent repair, often called PDR, uses long steel tools and specialized glue tabs to push or pull a dent back into place without disturbing the factory finish. The technician works slowly, reading the reflection on the panel to see every small high and low spot. Because no filler or paint is involved, the original finish stays on the car. Shallow, rounded dents with unbroken paint are the best candidates. Hail storms that cross US 380 often leave dozens of these marks on hoods and roofs. We look at each one first and tell you plainly which dents are good candidates and which ones are not.
What a Paintless Repair Covers
PDR is a specialized skill, and the work involves more than pushing out dents. Here is what may be part of your repair.
Candidate check
We look at each dent's depth, location and paint condition to decide if it can be fixed without refinishing.
Hail count and map
On hail-damaged cars, every dent is marked and counted so the plan and any claim are accurate.
Panel access planning
Each dent needs a route in, so we map which lamps, liners or trim pieces have to come out.
Rod and tool work
Long steel rods press on the underside in tiny increments until the surface reads flat.
Glue-tab lifting from the front
When a brace blocks access, we attach a pulling tab with hot glue and lift the dent from the outside.
Knockdown and leveling
High spots that form around a dent's rim get tapped flat with a knockdown tool and blending hammer.
Trim and part reinstallation
Lamps, liners and trim taken off for access go back on with every clip and seal seated.
Lined-board smoothness check
The finished panel is checked under a lined board to confirm it is smooth from every angle.
What to Expect During PDR
- 01
Sort the dents
We inspect the car under shop lights and mark each dent. Dents that suit paintless repair are listed separately from those that need refinishing. We explain the reasoning behind that split in plain terms. If you have a hail claim, we share the same list with your adjuster.
- 02
Push each dent out slowly
Trim, lamps or headliners are removed where needed to reach the dents. The technician pushes each one out in small steps, checking the reflection constantly. If a dent turns out to have a hidden paint crack, we call and explain the change before going further.
- 03
Put it back together and show you
Removed parts go back on and are checked for proper fit. We go over every panel under the reflection board. Once every panel passes, you get a call and a look at the before photos next to the finished car.

Straight answers on what qualifies
