What Is The Hail Repair Process For A Car?
Hail Repair Process
Before your car is repaired, it is assessed using specialised equipment and our technician’s trained eye. Thoroughly assessing your car before the repair is carried out ensures our technician is able to plan the best approach to restoring your car to its pre-dent condition.
Hail storms do not discriminate when it comes to which panels on your car are dented. As a result, dents are often found in places on your vehicle that are less-than-convenient to repair. Places that are harder to access and repair using traditional panel beating methods such as cant rails, the middle of the roof and the top of a hatch door, can be quickly and easily repaired using specialised Paintless Dent Repair techniques. Our highly skilled technicians use specialised tools and a variety of techniques to ensure your car is perfectly repaired every time without damaging the original paintwork on your vehicle.
To access dents located on the roof of your vehicle, it may be necessary to remove interior trimmings and the hood lining of your car. This process does not cause any damage to your vehicle and provides greater access for our technician to repair dents from the inside of your car. Removing and properly reinstalling the hood lining and interior trimmings of your car requires a comprehensive knowledge about how cars are constructed to ensure that your car is safely returned to its pre-repair state. Our technicians have been working in the automotive industry for decades, so you can rest assured your car is in good hands.
Tailgates, hatches and bonnets may also be removed from your vehicle to provide greater access to those hard to reach dents. Once removed, these panels are securely placed on specialised stands which allow our Paintless Dent Removal technicians to perfectly restore them. Once repaired, these panels are carefully refitted to your vehicle with your ongoing safety in mind.
The entire hail repair process can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days depending on the severity and extent of a vehicle’s hail damage.

erence for which panels they damage on a vehicle. It is the severity of the storm and the size of the hail stones that determine the extent of the damage. While the roof, boot and bonnet are directly exposed to hail, hail storms that are combined with strong winds can damage every panel on a car. Small to medium sized hail stones can produce dents that can easily be repaired using paintless dent removal techniques, while larger hail stones can smash windows and damage panels beyond repair, leaving no other option than to completely replace the panels. In some cases, the damage can be so severe, that vehicles cannot be repaired at all.

ue pulling system to remove the dents from the front of the panel. This method is often used in areas where there is no access available to the back of the panel. Both techniques bring your panels back to their pre-dent condition without affecting the paint on your vehicle. In contrast, when a panel shop repairs hail dents using traditional panel beating methods, your vehicle will end up with dents that have been filled with bog and painted over. This may leave your vehicle looking great in the short term, but leaves the factory paint finish compromised.
