Here are just some of the main positives to PDR

1) If you can get a dent removed with PDR for 100$ and it costs 1$ to paint, your better off spending the 100$. I know it sounds crazy, but its true. A vehicle that has never been painted is worth 15-20% more on resale. Most customers think they will keep their vehicle forever, so resale doesn't really matter, but thats rarely the case. Original factory paint lasts much longer and looks more brilliant. Its the difference between a real diamond and a cubic zirconia.

2) A body shop will never really match your color or orange peel consistently. This is why they must "blend" into undamaged panels (each panel blended hits Carfax as a damaged panel.). Orange peel are those little ripples in the paint, that stand out, when the sun hits it. Just like a diamond, the impression is noticeable and brilliant. Orange peel, looks like little crystals dancing in the sun; it cannot be reproduced outside of the factory. The reason is simple, in the factory, when a vehicle goes through the paint process it doesn't have anything but the outer shell. This allows the baking process to take place at much higher temeratures. If a body shop tried to reproduce these temperatures, it would melt your steering wheel, along with the rest of the interior. Having said that, some bodyshops come close, without the heat. However, its just a band-aide. In truth, thats how most of us define a good painter or a shop -- the quality of the orange peel. Finding a good painter and body shop is even more elusive than finding a good PDR technician, but thats for another post.

3) Time and convenience is a huge plus, but never let that detract from the overall goal of having your car perfect again. Yes, I said perfect.
