Fast, Clean Dent Removal — Preserve Your Vehicle’s Finish
What We Offer
- Paintless dent repair (PDR) for small dents, door-dings, hail dents, minor creases
- Panel restoration without sanding, fillers, or repainting
- Hail-damage repair, parking-lot dings, minor collision dents — ideal if original paint is intact
When PDR Is the Right Choice
If your vehicle has minor dents or dings — such as parking lot door dings, hail marks, or shallow dents with no paint damage — PDR is often the best solution. Since the original factory paint remains untouched, there’s no risk of paint mismatch or repaint issues.
Why Choose Franklin Auto Body for Your PDR Needs
- We offer expert Paintless Dent Repair in the Your City / Your Region area — convenient and local.
- Our technicians use specialized tools and proven PDR techniques to gently massage dents out from behind the panel, keeping the factory paint intact and preserving your car’s original finish.
- PDR is typically faster and more affordable than traditional dent repair, often completed in a few hours instead of days.
- Because repainting isn’t needed, there’s no risk of color mismatch — ideal for resale value or for vehicles under warranty.
- Environmentally friendly — no paints, fillers, or chemicals, so it’s a cleaner, greener repair option.
Our PDR Process
- Assessment & inspection — We carefully inspect the dent: size, depth, location, and check whether the paint is intact. If the paint is unbroken and metal not overly stretched, it’s usually a good candidate.
- Access & panel manipulation — Using specialized tools, we carefully work from behind the damaged panel (or from the front using gentle suction/adhesive methods) to massage the metal back to its original shape.
- Finish & inspection — Once the dent is removed, we inspect the panel under different light conditions to ensure the surface is smooth, evenly shaped, and free of distortions.
- Return your car — In many cases, PDR can be completed in hours, allowing you to get back on the road quickly without lengthy downtime.
When PDR May Not Be Suitable
PDR works best for small-to-medium dents where the paint isn’t cracked or chipped, and the panel metal isn’t severely creased or stretched. For large dents, sharp creases, paint damage, or dents near difficult-to-reach panel edges — traditional repair may be more appropriate
