Auto Hail Damage - How to save money with Paintless Dent Repair:

     

       In the last decade, the auto body repair industry has changed and developed significantly. PDR (Paintless Dent Repair) has taken over the auto repair industry, especially when it comes to auto hail damage and other damage to vehicles that occurs during a major storm. If you live in the state of Florida, you are more than likely very familiar with intense weather conditions that can wreck havoc on your home and your vehicle. We are currently in the season of storms and hail, and staying prepared and getting ahead of things before they happen can save you a lot of time and money. Fortunately, not all hail damage requires extensive repair time in an auto body shop. Paintless dent removal is the most cost-effective way to repair dents on a vehicle without the use of body fillers or paint. 

    What exactly is PDR?

        Paintless Dent Repair is a method that is used for removing minor dents from the body or panel of a vehicle without the use of any paint or fillers. This method of auto dent repair is achieved using specialized tools and rods to push and pull the dents from the panel without different movements referred to as "massaging the dent". With the use of metal rods, multiple different rubber or plastic tips, specialized glue, pullers, tabs, lights and other PDR tools, we are able to bring each vehicle back to its pre-damaged condition.

Why PDR is best for hail dents:

Quicker repair time:

    Traditional repairs can take days or weeks to finish. Some auto body shops will even have your vehicle for months! Paintless dent repair is a much faster process that can be completed in just a few days or less. Skilled technicians can sometimes even finish these repairs in just 24 hours, depending on how minor or major the damage is overall. 

Original paint preservation:

    One of the greatest benefits of PDR is being able to preserve the original paint on your vehicle. Your vehicles original paint is the most durable paint for your vehicle and it matches better than any paint match ever could from an auto repair service. That is why being able to preserve the paint is so important. 

Insurance coverage:

    Hail damage is covered by almost every auto insurance company out there. On top of that, PDR is what most insurance companies expect you to use for hail damage repairs today. Paintless dent repair methods for hail dents could actually lessen your out-of-pocket costs. You should always check with your insurance company to make sure that hail damage is covered under the comprehensive coverage on your plan.
