Professional Auto Painting in Sheffield

Small scratches and abrasions can be polished out after the repair is finished. If the paintwork has surface scratches that are deep enough to get a finger nail in then although the dent could be repaired, the scratches would still remain. If the paint is cracked or broken this is usually a repair that needs to visit a body shop for repainting.

A PDR repair will depend on the location of the dent on the affected panel. Too close to the edge of a panel or in a location with no access for tools could make it non-repairable. However, some repairs can be achieved by pulling the dent out from the surface.

Not all dents can be repaired 100% but if not, most can be repaired to a standard that significantly improves the appearance of the car. This is something that is discussed prior to any work being undertaken. See the Megane door in Extreme dents.

A typical door dent of around 20mm in diameter in the middle of a panel, with easy access, should take under an hour to complete. Larger and more extreme dents, especially those with difficult access could take significantly longer. All dents are still repairable as a mobile service and within the day.
