A: Dent pullers are most effective on shallow dents with a smooth surface. They may not work as well on creases, wrinkles, or complex damage to the body panel.

Dent Removal: Often, they will use different techniques to work out the dent. Some of their tools may be a heat gun, suction machine, and frame correction device. Fill: For dents that don't fully revert to their original shape, the technicians will fill the depression with a filler to even out the surface.

The so-called PDR technique (Paintless Dent Repair) is the less aggressive way to erase dents from vehicle sheet metal, as it doesn't involve using sandpaper, fillers or paints that reduce the value of the vehicle. Instead, the repair process is carried out with tools that won't adversely affect it.
