Paintless Dent Removal

 

Few people realize that it is possible to get rid of minor dents in a car without even touching the paint job. Aaron Baird owns West Coast Recon, a mobile automotive reconditioning company based in southern California. Here, he talks about what he calls paintless dent removal,and why it's the way to go.

 

Has your car been dented by hail, an accident or something else? Our dent removal professionals have the knowledge and training to smooth out any dent or scratch on your vehicle. If your damage consists of smooth, shallow dings, dents, and creases ranging in diameter from dime-sized to basketball-sized; or dents in plastic bumpers that have no holes, tears or paint damage and are still fully affixed to the vehicle, we can use the paintless dent removal process. 

 

Paintless dent removal is an amazing way to get rid of minor dents and dings in your car without having to touch the paint job. It preserves the integrity of the original paint by doing the job from the inside out. This is one of the most complicated things we do, and you will be surprised by our ingenious service.

 

Everything is done with a set of tools that have different angles and points on the end. The goal is to get behind where the little dent is. If it's on a door, we roll the window down, put a protective shield over the window, put a little ledge between the window and the opening, and get our tool down there and massage the dent out from the inside.

 

It involves no paintwork and no body filler. However, a body shop always fixes the dent by putting Bondo on it, which is a body filler, and then repainting. When you have paintwork done to the car, it will always look different from the original factory paint job. It devalues the car and there is often a chance of a mismatch. That's why paintless dent removal can be so invaluable. It also takes a fraction of the time and costs about one-third of the cost of a traditional body shop job.

 

Keep in mind that if the damage on your car is too severe or paint damage is involved, paintless dent removal would not be an option. This could include sharp dings, dents, and creases that have been stretched too deep; areas reinforced with double metal, such as the edges of a car's doors, hood, and trunk; damage on the edge of a body panel; or dents with extensive paint damage, including cracked or broken paint.

The Dent $10.99 "This story is pure fiction; it is not about someone I know. It is about that family we have all known at least one time in our lives. That family struggling, scared, alone, abandoned and desperate all or one of the above. It is about that family or person that makes me feel so ashamed when I think how I have complained to God about the slightest discomfort in my life. It is not my purpose to reveal the ending of this story but I will tell you it has a happy ending. This story will touch your heart and stir your emotions. If is doesn't check your pulse. After helping sell children's books for about ten years, I decided to try my hand at writing. It has been such a joy. I couldn't wait to get home in the evening to continue my writing. I could not have written this book without God's help. When you finish reading this book you will want to read it again, and you will tell your friends about it. Begin reading now and enjoy your journey."
