Planet Dents will remove your dents without bonding or painting. This ensures that your vehicle will be fully and professionally repaired by our team, as we use the PDR method

PDR or Paintless Dent Repair is a method of removing small dents without removing any paint from the vehicle. This is done by patiently massaging the dent from the back of the dashboard, or sometimes the front, using specialized tools.

The PDR is the logical first choice solution for dent repair without damaging your vehicle’s paintwork. Paintless Dent Repair is preferable to conventional bodywork repair because of the following advantages: 

  1. Cheaper than conventional body paint.
  2. Fast and convenient. Even minor dent repairs can keep your car stuck in a repair shop for days.
  3. Quality of repair. The PDR does not try to hide damage. The damage is permanently removed and provides a repair that is as close to its original state as possible.
  4. Increases the value of your vehicle.
  5. Maintains vehicle’s original durable finish and manufacturer’s paint.
  6. Preserves your vehicle’s factory structural integrity as the original body panels remain intact.
  7. Ecological way of repairing dents.
