Creases & minor collisions
Bigger dents and creases —
can they be fixed without paint?
Often, yes. Many creases and minor knocks can be removed with paintless dent removal — sometimes with a glue-pull technique that lifts the dent from the outside. But not always, and we’ll always be honest about which.
When PDR works
- The paint is intact and not cracked
- The metal isn’t torn or badly stretched
- There’s access to the back of the panel
When a bodyshop is the better call
- Cracked or chipped paint
- Very sharp creases on a body line
- Stretched metal that needs filling
Glue-pulling, simply
For some dents we use a glue-pull technique: special tabs are glued to the panel and used to gently pull the dent back out — no drilling, and no paint. It’s ideal for areas we can’t reach from behind.
Not sure if yours can be done?
Send a photo and we’ll tell you straight — and recommend a trusted bodyshop if PDR isn’t right.
