What is Paintless Dent Removal (PDR) and how does it work?

Paintless Dent Removal (PDR) is a technique used to remove minor dents and dings from your vehicle without affecting the original paint. Technicians use specialized tools to carefully push and pull the metal from behind the dent, restoring the surface to its original shape. This method is particularly effective for dents caused by hail, as well as other minor dings and dents.

What types of dents can be repaired using PDR?

PDR is most effective for small to medium-sized dents, such as those caused by hail, minor collisions, or door dings. It is ideal for dents that do not have cracks in the paint or significant damage to the vehicle’s surface. Larger or more complex dents, or those with paint damage, may require alternative repair methods.

Will Paintless Dent Removal restore the vehicle to its original condition?

PDR typically restores the vehicle’s surface to its original shape, significantly improving the appearance of dents, including those from hail. While the results are usually very good, minor imperfections might still be visible, particularly if the dent was large or the paint was slightly damaged.

How should I care for my vehicle after PDR?

After PDR, avoid washing or waxing the repaired area for at least 24 hours to allow the metal to settle and the repair to complete fully. Regular maintenance will help keep the area looking good. If you notice any issues or have concerns post-repair, please contact us for further assistance.

How does Chicago’s weather affect Paintless Dent Removal, especially for hail damage?

Chicago’s weather, with its extreme temperatures and frequent precipitation, can impact the condition of your vehicle and the effectiveness of PDR. Hail damage can be more challenging in varying weather conditions, but our technicians are skilled in handling such issues, ensuring the best results despite local climate challenges.

Miguel C.

I had contacted Carrectly and was in contact with Oliver. He was quick and communicated efficiently. He provided a competitive quote for my dent and was able to get me out same day. Other shops either were more expensive and/or wanted to keep the car multiple days. I also ended up getting the deluxe was wish was definitely well needed and made the interior of my car looking new. All in all good service and communicate on the part of Oliver and his team.

Had my car repaired for side mirror and dent damage. Great job on the overall repair and it didn’t take too much time. Also communicated with the insurance to leave me out of it as much as I could.
