hammer007 Donating Members 149 Member For: 21y 8m 6d Location: Canberra Posted 11/01/04 07:55 PM Share Posted 11/01/04 07:55 PM I'm after some feedback from forum members who have used companies using PDR to remove creases/dings/dints/dents etc ?Did it work ? Were you happy with the results ?I've got a minor crease in rear passenger door which I've had quoted to repair @$70. Pretty minor but big enough to annoy me sufficiently that I don't want to see it for another 3 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everytime that I have used this method of removing dents I've almost kissed the guy when I saw the job he'd done. It's definately something you should consider because I can't pick were it was dented no matter how hard I look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing has happened like that to the BA yet, but my XF, which I had resprayed suffered the hits of careless idiots in carparks and had mainly some white dings in the doors. It wasn't really dented, more marked.Who gave you the $70 quote? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any ideas on how they actually do it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally it can be fixed within 10 to 30 minutes.They work out the crease/dent from the inside with a roller type tool, and don't touch the outside.We've have wrx club days where a pdr guy has been booked, and he's been kept very busy for the whole day.Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a website www.dentking.com.au but as I haven't used them yet I can't reccomend them.Thanks others for feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
