Australia has seen a rise in interest in classic custom cars. Car enthusiasts gather weekly to display the classic cars they have restored and maintained, as more and more people become fascinated with these cars. However, what do you do when your car gets dented? Here, we will talk about a technique to remove your car’s dents, without the inconvenience of the conventional panel shop repair.
Many people will admit it: it can be tempting to do your own car repairs. If you have the right knowledge and skills, you could find this route presents an ideal opportunity to save some money. Things like changing your own oil and topping up your fluids come to mind.
Some things, however, are best left to the professionals. This is because specific tools may be required to get the job done and these could be expensive for you to acquire. In addition, it often takes time and training to learn how to get the job done well. There’s a reason people like plumbers go to school for years before practising their trade!

So, someone ran into your car in the parking lot. Bad news! Your vehicle now has a significant, unsightly dent in its front side door that’s begging to be repaired.
You’ve done some research and you know that there are two basic options out there on the dent repair market. One is the traditional method. This involves taking your car to an auto body repair shop where they’ll pound the car’s body back into its original shape, and add filler to any remaining gaps, painting over everything when it’s done. This is called panel beating.
The other type of repair, which we specialise in at PDR2U, has been around for just a few decades. It’s more modern in its approach and doesn’t involve using any paint. As such, it’s usually a lot faster, not to mention cheaper!
