RM300 you can respray a panel but the advantage of paintless dent repair is that you don't have to worry about colour matching if you respray. However if some of the paint has dropped out PDR will still leave a mark.
Nicks in the door panel due to careless opening of doors is common. It's not going to be the last nick you get on the doors. Unless my car is a Ferarri or Porsche I would just leave it. |

actually paintless dent repairs will always leave some sort of mark, whether obvious or not is the question.

really depends on the experience of the guy and the location of the dent.
i remember doing PDR in canada on an audi tt for like $50 first dent and $30 subsequent dents. never had a mark or sign that there was ever a dent, other than 1 spot where the line of the car is. |

RM200 to press out a dent is too much! These people are killing their own business.

QUOTE(IamAHuman @ Jan 13 2018, 09:20 AM) I believe I did at the same place, the boss is an uncle and a nice guy. I did around 10+ dents mostly caused by other people's door and stone chips (including one mid-size dent around 10cm). He managed to fix all except 1 or 2 (still have minor mark). Pretty good option if you care for your car paint because respraying won't have the original paint look (due to age and etc). Also depends on your car's material, brand new cars with aluminium mix is much stronger and hard to fix. |

It also depends on the location of the dents which may make it harder. I paid around RM700+ for mine (4 panels) after bargaining. Probably re-spraying will cost the same but I wanna maintain the original paint haha.How much did he charge you for all the dents? |

Expensive since the workshop uses special machine to mend the dent.
from what I know it won't leave any mark since induction method is used, something like this one: ![]() |

painless dent just a marketing strategy depends on how serious the damage is ..
If it pointing towards inwards too much. They will still need to dismantle some parts and knock it from inside. Inside there are knocking damages but you will not see it anyways .. ( better dont see or you will cry ) It also depends on what tools they use. Professional and expensive shops normally use impact absorbent tools that will not damage vehicle paint job or inside out. That is why they quote more expensive You guys should be happy. Normally these only available in KL. JB no one is doing this |

You all can call Jerry at zero one 92587304. Long time I didn’t visit him. Dunno whether he’s still using this number or not.

Don’t just believe all the picture they upload. 10 out 3 was flawless. That 7 never posted. All matter is the location you hit, the size and how long ago. They can repair but you will still see warp. Think logically if all can be fix the paint body shop will all close down. OCD is hard to accept, but remember times will pass and things will older. Small dent just better leave it. Save the money for your next car. This car will never companion you lifetime. Accept the fact and move on.

Hi,
I'm thinking, I mean I was curious how often do people get their cars washed, polished, and detailed ? I do it once in every three years but I think I need to be more frequent since its getting old. Thanks! |
