What PDR Covers (and When It Doesn’t)

Great candidates for PDR:

Door dings and small to medium dents where paint isn’t cracked

Hail dents across roofs, hoods, and trunk lids

Gentle creases that haven’t stretched metal excessively

Many aluminum panels (case‑by‑case)

Usually not PDR candidates:

Dents with cracked/chipped paint or sharp creases

Damage on panel edges or near bracing where access is limited

Plastic bumper gouges (often require traditional repair)

Panels with prior filler or significant stretch

If PDR isn’t safe or won’t look right, we’ll recommend conventional repair and refinishing that meet OEM procedures.

Our PDR Process

Designed to make repairs clear, thorough, and stress‑free.
Estimate & Qualification

  • Inspect dents under proper lighting and reflection boards
  • Check paint integrity and metal stretch
  • Determine if PDR or conventional repair is the right path
  • Provide a written plan and estimate (hail jobs may require on‑site mapping)

Insurance Coordination (if applicable)

  • Document damage with photos and counts
  • Communicate with your insurer and help arrange a rental
  • Schedule with our PDR partners for efficient turnaround

PDR Service

  • Access panels through factory openings — no drilling access holes
  • Use precision tools and glue‑pull systems to massage dents from behind
  • Preserve OEM finish; no fillers or repaint when feasible

Finish & Quality Check

  • Inspect panel contours and reflections
  • Light polish or micro‑refinish touch‑ups if required
  • Final wash and customer walkthrough

The Grimes Difference

Not all dent repairs are equal. We stand for quality and care:

Integrity Over Speed

We won’t push PDR when it won’t yield OEM‑level results.

No Drill‑Hole Shortcuts

We use factory access to protect corrosion coatings and warranties.

Upgrade Path

If PDR won’t restore the panel fully, we’ll outline a conventional repair plan with blending in a controlled booth.

PDR reshapes metal from behind the panel without filler or paint. Traditional repair involves filler, priming, and repainting — used when paint is damaged or metal is overstretched.
Small dings may be same‑day; hail repairs vary by panel count and access. We’ll give a realistic timeline after inspection.
PDR preserves your original factory finish, which is ideal for long‑term value and color match.
Often, yes — but it’s case‑by‑case. We’ll confirm during inspection.
Yes, we can arrange rental cars for hail or larger jobs.
We’ll recommend the proper repair (panel repair/replacement and paint blend) and explain costs and timelines.
