Hail and dent repair

Dent repair that respects the original finish

Hail marks and door dings can stand out every time light crosses the panel. Our PDR approach focuses on the shape of the metal, the condition of the paint, and a result that blends back into the vehicle.

Technician checking a white SUV dent with reflection light — Reflected light reveals the shape ordinary lighting can hide.

Technician working a black door ding with PDR light — Curves, body lines, and access shape the repair plan.

Paintless dent repair

A cleaner panel without unnecessary paint work

Paintless dent repair is built for the dents where the factory finish can stay in place. When the damage is sharper, deeper, or tied to cracked paint, the repair path changes so the final result still looks right.

Technician using pull tabs on a dark vehicle panel — Precise access and controlled pressure help the panel recover cleanly.

The factory finish stays central

PDR is strongest when the paint remains intact and the panel can be worked without refinishing.

The reflection shows the real dent

Light lines make shallow waves, pressure points, and stretched areas easier to read.

Every panel has its own limits

Roofs, quarter panels, door skins, edges, and braced areas each need a repair approach that fits the panel.

Hail marks and door dings

Hail damage and door dings are handled differently

A single door ding, a crease near a body line, and a roof full of hail marks do not repair the same way. The work is planned around the panel, the finish, and how the vehicle will look in real light.

Technician using PDR light on a gray vehicle panel — Shallow dents become clear when the reflection is controlled.

Technician checking a red vehicle quarter panel with PDR light — Curves and body lines are part of the final result.

Technician working hail dents on a dark vehicle roof — Hail clusters are treated as a full-panel concern.

Door dingsSmall side dents look best when the panel shape and paint finish are protected together.

Hail damageRoof, hood, and deck marks are planned as a full finish concern, not a set of disconnected spots.

Finish qualityA good repair should leave the gloss, reflection, and panel shape looking natural.

A smoother panel starts with the right repair path

From one door ding to storm damage across several panels, American Auto Body helps match the repair to the vehicle so the finish looks clean again.
