Default Dent repair

IS PDR (paintless dent removal) effective? I got 2 door dings on drivers side door which are at the top and bottom between the body line. They're small but the bottom was has a creased line in it. Any suggestions on the best way to restore it before it got dinged?

Yes, PDR works. My Z looks like new again. I had a dime size ding on the driver's door fixed. I was watching the technician the whole time. Took about 10 mins.

I have to agree. I thought the dent would never come out easily from my door, but I would challenge anyone to be able to find the spot after the repair. And yes, I am really **** about this kind of stuff (just ask my wife ).

Dent Wizard I beleive is a National chain of paintless dent removers. I've had a few door dings/shopping cart dings pulled from my z and you cannot even tell that the dings were there. These guys can work magic.

In San Diego, "Just Dings" does great work.

I am actually, looking to learn PDR myself so i can fix my own dents. I'm looking for a weekend course for hobbyists..

I had two on the crease of the door, they got both out. Its not perfect, but its much better than actually having a dent, ya know?

I dont think it works on urethane.
