Also known as paintless dent removal, paintless dent repair is a way to remove dents from the body of a vehicle without forcing the owner to have to get a new paintjob in the process. As long as the surface of the paint is intact, a great variety of dents can be successfully removed from either aluminum or steel. In most instances, paintless dent repair will involve pushing the dent back out from inside the panel. Experienced technicians will be able to do this without causing high spots on the exterior of the panel and without causing paint to chip. 

For more extreme cases that cannot be solved with standard dent repair techniques, technicians will use a method called “push to paint”. This involves the technician removing the dent then sanding down the damage to the paint until it is smooth. Once the damaged area is smoothed out, the technician will apply a coat of fresh paint and a finish to make it look like new.

Unsurprisingly, a good amount of the damage caused was to vehicles, which experienced everything from minor dents to massive body damage and broken windshields.
