Save Money With Paintless Dent Repair

Painting and refinishing are two of the most expensive parts of vehicle repair. On the one hand, due to the high costs of quality color-matched automotive paint, and on the other hand, because of the high labor costs involved. If you'd like to get rid of unsightly dents and dings on your vehicle without incurring the high costs of painting and refinishing, then consider PDR. This technique is not only more affordable, but it also saves you time, as it usually takes far less time than having your vehicle painted. Not all types of damages can be fixed with paintless dent repair though. The size and location of the dent are also factors taken into consideration. Here, at CARSTAR Chilton Auto Body San Carlos in San Carlos, CA, we have qualified and experienced technicians to assess the extent of the damage on your vehicle's body and determine if PDR is indeed a possibility.
