Traditional Auto Body vs. Paintless Dent Removal

By admin On June 19, 2010 Under Automotive

It is time to take a closer look at the real advantages of paintless dent removal over traditional methods.

 

Better Investment

 

If you choose to opt with traditional auto body repair techniques, the chances are extremely high that the body shop will use body filler and additional auto paint during the process.  This will make the repair much more detectable to human eye as well as diminish your cars overall resale value.  Paintless dent removal is based upon much gentler techniques that will leave your car looking like new, without diminishing the overall value of your car.

 

Lowest Cost

 

Body filler and repainting will always mean that traditional auto body repair will always be more expensive than the paintless alternative.  Additionally, traditional auto body repair is much more labor intensive, which often makes paintless dent removal up to 75% less expensive.

 

Better for the Environment

 

Paintless dent removal does not require the use of auto paint or other environmentally detrimental products.  Traditional auto body repair relies on chemicals throughout the process including: base-coats, clear-coats, body filler, paint thinner, and the auto paint itself.  Paintless dent removal restores the metal to its original shape without the need for any of the additional materials.  Throughout the entire process, paintless dent removal releases zero harmful chemicals.

 

Best Time Savings

 

Traditional auto body repair is a very time consuming option, whereas paintless dent removal can take as little as 30 minutes for small jobs.  Traditional methods may mean that your car is left in the shop for several days, which should never happen when choosing the paintless option.

 

When it comes to fixing that nasty dent on your vehicle, traditional methods are rarely the best choice.  While there are some types of dents that paintless dent removal will not be able to fix, it should always be the preferred option.  Paintless dent removal is more effective at maintaining your vehicles value, it is the least expensive option, it is much better for the environment, as well as saving you a lot of time.
