Paintless dent removal is just that: fixing a dent without having to alter the original paint job of your vehicle. If you see that the damage done to your vehicle has broken your vehicle’s paint, it is automatically disqualified from a PDR service, as it will need filler and a new coat of paint to properly fix the blemish.

Along with broken paint, also pay attention to the severity of the damage. Although most dents and dings are qualified for this service, any major damages such as deep creases, punctures, and even damage that resembles a puncture will disqualify your vehicle from this service. These damages are beyond the scope of a PDR service and your vehicle will need traditional dent repair to properly fix the issue.
