Mobile dent repair can fix most small to medium dents where the paint remains intact. This includes door dings, shallow dents from parking lots, minor pressure dents, and impressions caused by objects that struck the panel without breaking the finish. These dents respond extremely well to paintless dent repair because the metal can be reshaped cleanly while preserving the original factory paint.

A dent qualifies when the paint is not cracked, the metal is not overstretched, and the shape has smooth edges. If the dent does not contain sharp creases or chipped paint, there is a strong chance it can be restored using PDR. A technician evaluates depth, location, and panel flexibility to confirm whether mobile dent repair is the right method.

Most repairs take between one and three hours depending on the size and depth of the dent. Small door dings can sometimes be finished even faster, while larger dents require more precision and controlled metal movement. Because all work is completed on-site, customers save significant time compared to body shop scheduling and drop-off requirements.

Paintless dent repair helps maintain value by keeping the factory paint untouched. Buyers and appraisers often look for original paint because it confirms that the panel has not been refinished. PDR restores the natural contour of the metal without replacing parts or altering protective coatings, allowing the vehicle to retain a clean, well-cared-for appearance.

Some large dents qualify for mobile paintless dent repair as long as the metal has not been overstretched and the paint remains flexible. Technicians evaluate the reflection across the panel to determine how the metal moved and whether it can be manipulated back into shape. Larger dents may require more time, but many still respond well to precise PDR techniques.

Weather can affect the repair environment because PDR requires stable lighting and controlled conditions to read the metal correctly. If heavy rain, high wind, or extreme temperatures occur, the technician may set up shelter or adjust the appointment time. Clear communication ensures that each repair is completed under optimal conditions for the best result.

Yes, paintless dent repair can be performed on aluminum panels as long as the dent meets the same criteria used for steel. Aluminum requires different tool control and pressure techniques because it responds differently to metal movement. A trained PDR technician understands these adjustments and restores aluminum panels cleanly when the paint remains undamaged.
