Paintless Dent repair

karansingh2216 · 25th March 2016, 15:54

Hi , I am Karan Singh Khokhar, a new member of the BHP family. I need your help mates. Unfortunately i recently met with an accident in which my new car: verna 4s got damaged from behind. Luckily, the damage was a lot less than the 3 cars which hit me from behind. The Bumper and the boot lid took the impact. Out of the two, i got the bumper repaired but the boot lid has 3 dents upon it. Due to the sheet being a double layered from behind, every person denied dry denting. Since, it is my new car, i do not want to get the boot either replaced or re-painted. Is there any way i can get it dry dented from somewhere in Delhi? Please suggest. Thanks

(I am enclosing two pictures in which i hope you guys find the dents appropriately)

Have a dent on the front quarter panel & hoping that PDR should help. Does anyone know of any contacts in & around Thane ?
Know of Mr. Sudhir Gaikwad who has a shop in Navi Mumbai Khargar, anyone else ?

Refer to post # 69. Sudhir Gaikwad, the dent repair man, can be contacted on +91 95526 29516. He is available on whatsapp. He asks you to whatsapp the dent pics and provides consultation. He comes to Mumbai too. Just FYI.

Hi, in case Chennaiites are looking for a good PDR job to be done, there's this place in Royapettah. I had a dent on my RH front wheel arch caused by a two wheeler

The dent was quite bad & had the fender sticking out.Luckily the paint was intact.I had a contact of this guy (Radhakrishnan) an expert tinker, many years ago but lost it &after scouting my old contacts in the auto segment finally managed to get his address.Only difference was his son (Ramu) was running the shop.He took just about 45 mins & had it restored to nearly as good as original.Charges- Rs.400/- Now its impossible to say that the fender was dented. I saved on doing a full tinker & paint job. This guy has talent like his dad & is quite reasonable.

I have 2 incidents to share. I have a Vitara Brezza ZDi+ and I'm from Bangalore. About a couple of months back, the rear bumper had a bad dent with a crack due to an auto bumping into it. I took it to the Maruti Authorized center and they made me change the full bumper. That costed me about 8k with painting included.
Last month, I had a smaller but more prominent dent on the from LHS. This time I went through the TBHP references. I decided to contact Trend Automobiles (Hosur Road) and took it for an inspection and estimate. I have got it done from them and the cost was very very nominal, almost 1/10th. I wish I had come to them the first time around

And I found they more communicative and warm to my queries. I'm happy with their service!!

Our swift VDi has a dent on the backdoor, which needs to be removed.

Could you please provide us their contacts?

I came across a guy called Kumar who offers doorstep service for minor jobs. Sharing the pictures of my WR-V from today's experience. He charged Rs.600 for the work. A young guy and well aware of using social media for business promotion.

I had to use the services of Trend Automobiles yesterday. A startled cow ran onto the road right into my path, bounced off the front Left fender and ran away. No, nothing happened to the cow, it was a slow-speed incident; but I had a small ding right on the crease of the bonnet just behind the Left headlight.

I interacted with Dinesh at Trend. A very well-spoken gentleman; and one who seems to believe in doing good quality work for a reasonable price.

I was led to believe that the job would take a couple of hours or so at the maximum; but I was done in 30 minutes.

I was warned that since this is on the crease, there is a possibility of the paint flaking. However, this did not happen.

Right now, unless one is actively looking for a ding that they absolutely know was there, the ding is invisible. The car looks pristine.

Cheers

Guys I need your advice. I have a Honda City VX CVT 2014 model. Unfortunately there are multiple dents on the hood (top) very close to the sunroof and scattered all over as well.
The size of each dent individually is small but collectively they are about 8 to 10 in number. I want to get a paintless dent repair because each dent is small in terms of size.
What are the possible solutions?. I am in Mumbai.

Hello Guys,

I had a heavy branch fall on my Rapid today. The ceramic coating and the clear coat underneath took the damage not the paint and the dent is as all but invisible to a non observant eye. I was planning to get another layer of ceramic coating done but looks like I will have to get this fixed first. The dent is so minute that I am worried I would be asked for a full blown tinkering work. Trends Automobiles is a stone throw away.

What do you guys recommend?

Anyone use any PDR in Mumbai successfully? I am looking for a professional desperately but it appears that they are rare in Mumbai (vs. Bangalore).

Me too looking for a PDR in Mumbai/Thane.
Any indications will be helpful.

Am aware of Sudhir from Pune but would prefer someone in Mumbai/thane itself.

Hey guys, could y'all confirm if these guys are still functioning and if you could share some feedback, as well?

Got a couple of small dents on my 2 month old JTP

.. Would really hope that I can get this repaired the PDR way!
Though it's minor, I'm still losing sleep over it :(
Any pointers would be much appreciated !

Hi there

Privilege Moto mall have shifted to St Thomas Mount, they are located just after the Kathipara Flyover on the left on the way to Airport.

Their nos 9840000989 whatsapp Subramani 9962021289.

They carry out PDR based on the dent. You can whatsapp the dent picture to them and check whether they can do it by PDR. Otherwise they also offer tinkering and painting services.

Disclaimer:For some reason I did not take my Cruze the last time I had replied to this thread. I do not have any personal experience with this shop.

I have a Captur now there is a dent which i checked with them they said it cannot be removed by PDR. They can do tinkering and painting which will cost Rs 5500 including GST.

Picture of the dent on my Captur.
