Minor dents in your car’s body also have a negative impact on its resale value. It is worthwhile to enquire about car dent repair on the Gold Coast to restore your peace of mind and preserve the value of your car.
What is Paintless Dent Repair on the Gold Coast?
If the paint around the dented area on your car is not cracked, Gold Coast Dent & Hail Repair might be able to remove the dent using a paintless dent repair (PDR) technique.
With PDR, metal rods and body picks are used to push the indentation out from the underside of the body panel. Sometimes a metal panel consists of several layers, making the dent inaccessible from underneath.
If this is the case, we might still be able to pull out the depression from the right side with special glue and tabs. After the dent is removed, it might be necessary to tap down any high points to even out the area.
Depending on the extent of the deformity, the location of the dent might need to be heated up to prevent the paint from cracking while the metal is reshaped.
What Type of Dents can we Remove with PDR?
PDR works best for shallow dents and creases in body panels where the paint did not crack when the accident occurred.
One of the most common types of damage that requires car dent repair on the Gold Coast is hail damage. In recent years the severity of hail storms along the Gold Coast has increased, costing residents billions of dollars in damage.
Your insurance company will most likely cover the cost of PDR and Gold Coast Dent & Hail Repair can assist you with the claim process.
Flying objects such as balls and frisbees usually don’t crack the paint when they hit your car, and the resulting dent can be repaired with PDR.
Remember that the size doesn’t matter as much as the depth and the acuteness of the angle of the indentation. We can also successfully repair shallow dents that cover a large area with PDR.
An everyday cause of damage to the body panels of cars is car park dents.
Over time, doors of other vehicles that are banged against the sides of your vehicle, and runaway trolleys that crash against your car cause an accumulation of small dents that we can usually remove with paintless dent repair on the Gold Coast.
Thinking you can use a drain plunger to pull out a dent, or just leave your car standing in the sun until the dent pops out by itself, is a myth.
To achieve a high-quality result, PDR requires a skilled technician and sophisticated equipment.
With more than 25 years of dent removal experience, Darren Willis can often manage a repair in less than an hour, with a cost of under $ 100.
Don’t let the thought of the expense and repair time of dent removal prevent you from driving a car in tip-top condition.
