Paintless Dent Repair Recommendation

A recent "traditional body shop" estimate on a bunch of parking lot dings and new windshield ding syndrome came in at $1400.

The Dent Clinic (south-side) guys fixed them all for about $400 and did it with no paint touch ups or body filler and completed the job in less than a day.

I had my doubts about paintless dent repair - but now I'm a complete believer! These guys use specialty tools to get in between the body panels to lever or hammer out dents.

Obviously they can't fix cracked/chipped paint, but I'd much rather have a few character defining nicks than filler or patched paint!

They've been up here over the summer.

I had them remove one and I was very impressed.

They are from Calgary as well. Their workers stay here for a month then back home.

How'd that Dansk work out for you?

Dansk & Dansk (pre-muffler & sport) - love them both. Now I just gotta get a bit of a smoking problem under control. It seems cats, not only have nine lives, but they can conceal oil burning habits.

Hoping it's not top-end time.
