Paintless Dent Repair in Baltimore
Not every dent needs a full panel repair. If your car has damage from hail, parking lot dings, or low-speed contact, paintless dent repair (PDR) might be the fastest and most affordable solution. This technique restores the shape of your vehicle’s panels without sanding, filling, or repainting, preserving your factory finish and saving you time and money.
How Paintless Dent Repair Works
PDR involves carefully reshaping the metal from behind the panel using specialized tools. Our technicians access the back of the dent through small openings and apply controlled pressure to massage the metal back into place. In some cases, glue pulling methods may be used on the front side of the panel instead.
Because the paint remains untouched, there’s no need to match colors, blend finishes, or apply new coatings. When done properly, the dent disappears completely, and the panel looks like new.
When Is PDR a Good Fit?
Paintless dent repair is ideal for shallow dents where the paint is still intact, and the metal hasn’t stretched or creased. It’s commonly used for:
- Hail damage
- Door dings from other vehicles
- Shopping cart impacts
- Minor body panel impressions
- Low-speed contact with poles or objects
- Round dents with smooth edges
What PDR Can and Can’t Fix
If your vehicle’s damage isn’t a candidate for paintless dent repair, we can still help with traditional dent repair and refinishing. Our technicians will walk you through both options and recommend the right approach for your car.
