Paintless Dent Repair in Brownsville

Paintless dent repair, or PDR, is the fix for dents where the paint survived. Instead of filling and repainting, we reach behind the panel and work the metal back to where it was.

Below is what PDR handles well, where it stops being the right answer, and the questions Brownsville drivers ask about it.

What It Covers

What Paintless Dent Repair Handles

Door dings from the parking lot at H-E-B. Hail dimples across a hood. The soft round dent from a stray ball. Shallow creases that have not stretched the metal too far.

The advantage is your paint. Once a panel is filled and resprayed, that panel is no longer wearing the finish it left the factory with. PDR keeps it.

The Honest Limits

When PDR Is the Wrong Answer

PDR needs two things: paint that is not cracked or chipped, and metal that has not been stretched past coming back. Once the finish is broken, sealing the panel properly means refinishing it.

Dents on a sharp body line, on the very edge of a panel, or where there is no access behind the metal are also poor candidates. We will tell you which camp yours is in — and if the answer is conventional bodywork and paint, we will say that instead.

What Comes With Every Paintless Dent Repair Job

Every dent gets looked at the same way, whether it is one ding or a hood full of hail dimples.

Paint Stays Original

Nothing is filled or resprayed. The panel keeps the finish it left the factory wearing.

Worked From Behind

We reach the back of the panel and bring the metal back gradually, rather than pulling and filling from the front.

Questions About Paintless Dent Repair

Will the dent come back?
No. PDR moves the metal back to shape, it does not hide the dent. Once the panel is back where it should be, it stays there.
How much does paintless dent repair cost?
It depends on how many dents there are, how big they are, and where they sit on the panel. Looking at it is free — bring the car by and we will tell you what is involved.
Can you fix hail damage this way?
Hail is one of the best uses for PDR, because hail dents are usually shallow and the paint is usually intact. A whole panel of dimples can often come out without any repainting.
What if the paint is chipped or cracked?
Then PDR is not the right method on its own. Broken paint has to be refinished to seal the panel properly, which means conventional bodywork. We will walk you through that option instead.
How long does PDR take?
Far less time than filling and repainting, since there is no prep, paint, or cure time. The exact time depends on how many dents and how awkward they are to reach.
Is this covered by insurance?
It can be, particularly with hail. We work with all insurance companies and will help you file the claim at no charge. What your policy covers is between you and your carrier.
