Paintless Dent Repair?

Anyone done it on their truck? I need to get some hail damage fixed. Any issues?

Highly dependent on the individual doing it, but the good ones are awesome. I highly recommend it.

I got a ding in my baby that fell right on a body crease and I was convinced it was never going to come out. I didn't want to do a fill-and-paint repair because I'm trying to preserve the original factory finish on my truck.

Took it to a local PDR guy and he massaged it out beautifully -- no way to tell there was even anything there......

A few years ago, my sister had a brand new Honda that got a ton of hail damage. The insurance company sent a guy out to remove the dents (a LOT of dents) and it looked like new.............

Yep, as long as the paint is not cracked, broken or chipped, they can do a perfect job. You will never know what was there. Had damage oll over two black trucks and they fixed both.

Same for me, removed a ding in the side of my box. Could not have been happier with the results. Body shop wanted $750 to spray the whole box and the PDR guy charged me $100.

Yes, it is VERY dependent on the PDR guy. My PDR guy made it PERFECT!!!
