PDR differs from traditional dent repair methods in that it does not require sanding, filling, or repainting the affected area. Instead, it focuses on manipulating the metal from behind the panel, preserving the vehicle’s original paint finish.

While PDR can be used on most vehicles, its effectiveness depends on factors such as the type and location of the dent, as well as the accessibility from the backside of the panel. PDR is commonly used on metal panels but may not be suitable for plastic or fiberglass surfaces.
