PDR is a painless way to remove dents and dings from your car’s body. PDR can be the best option for smaller dents, where the paint has not broken. The process involves applying pressure to the damaged area and then using a special tool to gently roll away the dents and create a perfect surface. There are a few different types of PDR systems available that may be able to remove more serious damage from your car. By selecting the right system for your vehicle, you can be confident that your vehicle will be treated with care and attention.
How does PDR work?
The system uses compressed air to apply pressure to the dented surface of the car and apply pressure to the panel underneath the dent. As the pressure is applied, it causes the damaged area of the panel to expand and create an area of higher tension in the surrounding material. As a result, the dent will slide out of place and make it easier to remove the damaged surface. Once the dent has been completely removed, the panel will be leveled to its original position and the damage to the panel will be minimized. As long as there is no paint damage to the area, the dent can be removed without the need for paint or other work that would damage the car.
The paintless dent removal methods
The two most common paintless dent removal methods are firstly using metal rods to manipulate the panel and secondly using a pulling method. The pulling method is the quickest and easiest way to remove dents. But be aware that the process is more expensive than the other methods.
There are several advantages to using PDR in place of traditional body repair methods. Here are just a few:
- It is faster: Unlike some repairs, PDR is much faster and easier to perform.
- It can be used on all types of vehicles: This makes it ideal for the occasional driver who needs their car fixed
- It is less expensive: It costs much less than traditional body repairs and doesn’t require any special tools to perform
- It doesn’t leave any permanent marks: As the filler is removed from the car, it doesn’t leave any damage behind and you can reuse the filler where necessary
- It is extremely safe: You can perform this procedure anywhere without the need for any special training or licensing.
- Also, it is very safe for the person performing the repair as there are no cutting tools involved in the process.
- Lastly, it is very versatile: You can use it to fix a wide variety of dents, dings, scratches, and other imperfections on any type of vehicle and can even use it to repair dents in the roof of your car.
