Shallow
dents usually from hail, or accidently backing up to a lamp post, is
not that big of a deal. Although it doesn’t affect more than the
outermost layer of the car, it does, however, affect your car
aesthetically.
If
the impact was strong enough that the paint on the impact zone had
been chipped or cracked, paint repairs, which are intricate and
considerably expensive, should be done immediately, else the exposed
metal under the paint suffer more damage.
Since
modern automotive paints are formulated to be extremely hard and
resilient, paintless dent removal is a cheaper and more convenient
alternative.
Paintlessdent removal, sometimes referred to as paintless dent repair, is a
process for removing minor dents and creases from the body of a
vehicle.
Common
methods use special tools that include metal rods and body picks.
These are used to push the dents out from the underside of the body
panel. It can also be used on both steel and aluminium automotive
panels.
Paintless
dent removal is significantly cheaper and takes up less time compared
to full body works from automotive shops. With the right PDR tools,
almost any dents and creases without paint damage can be repaired.
