Paintless Dent Removal - How It Works

Paintless Dent Removal - How It Works

It's inevitable at some point during the lifecycle of your vehicle that you'll end up will a few dings or bumps. If this happens, there are a couple of options. If you're lucky, though, you may be a candidate for paintless dent removal. It's best to check with a trusted professional first, such as our partners at Westgate Collision in Raleigh, NC.

A quick inspection may be all you need. If you inspect the dent and the paint looks intact, you may be able to save some money. If the paint is chipped or cracked, you may be looking at more of an investment, especially if the metal is exposed. 

The process itself is relatively simple. You must access the area behind the dent and apply pressure with a specialized set of tools from behind the dent while adding support to the front so it doesn't push out too far. 

Provided that the correct tools are used and the area structurally sound, the process should only take a professional a few minutes.

There are kits sold that allow you to attempt the process yourself, it's best to let a professional handle it.

The process of getting behind the dent in the first place can be very involved and you could harm the internal area of the body.
