Raul is a magician! I brought my car in last fall due to the trunk getting dinged, when it was transported from Arizona to Indiana. He is an artist at his craft and I highly recommend!

Awesome. I cannot believe it. All the dents are perfectly gone. I will use this process  always. The car is perfect. No bondo, no scratch marks. And a much better cost. Again awesome.

Raul is a magician! I dinged a family members brand new car while they were away and had to make it like it never happened before they returned. 40min later the dent was erased from existence. No one could find any trace of it. I could even feel the memory of denting it being erased from my mind! He's a true master metal bender with a sick van. 100% will recommend/ use again as I'm really good at denting things. Thanks so much for saving my @$$

FAQs About Our Dent Repair

  • What is paintless dent repair (PDR)?

    Paintless dent repair is a technique that removes dents without affecting your vehicle’s original paint. Using specialized tools, our technicians carefully massage dents from the inside out, preserving the factory finish and avoiding costly repainting.

  • How long does the dent repair process take?

    Most dent repairs are completed within a few hours to a day, depending on the size and location of the damage. We prioritize quick turnaround times to get your vehicle back on the road promptly without compromising quality.

  • Will my insurance cover the dent repair?

    Coverage varies by policy and provider. We recommend contacting your insurance company to confirm. We also offer free estimates to help you understand repair costs and assist with insurance claims if needed.

  • Can all dents be repaired with PDR?

    Paintless dent repair works best on minor dents, dings, hail damage, and creases where the paint remains intact. Larger or more severe damage may require traditional bodywork, which we can help evaluate during your free estimate.
