FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
A little clarity.
Before the repair.
Answers to the questions we hear most often.
What is paintless dent repair?
Paintless dent repair, or PDR, gently reshapes a damaged panel using specialist tools. When the damage is suitable, it removes the dent while keeping the vehicle’s original paint intact — without body filler or repainting.
Can every dent be repaired this way?
Not every dent is suitable for PDR. The location, depth, access to the panel, condition of the paint, and amount of stretched metal all matter. Very sharp dents or creases may need another approach. Photos help us make an initial assessment.
How much will my repair cost?
The estimate depends on the size and location of the dent and how easily we can access it. Send clear photos of the damage, together with your vehicle’s make and model, for a free estimate.
Do I need to bring my car to a shop?
LUX PDR offers mobile service in every city in San Diego County, plus Temecula, California. We come to your home or workplace, so you can fit the repair around your day. Contact us to confirm your location and arrange an appointment.
How long does a repair take?
Many repairs can be completed in one or two hours, depending on the size and location of the damage. We’ll discuss the expected time after assessing your dent.
Can you repair dents before I return a leased car?
Yes. Paintless dent repair can be an option for removing suitable dents and dings before a lease return. Send photos for an assessment and estimate before arranging the work.
