Car dent removal in service
Removal of car dents damaged by hail and parking impacts must be done in a specialized service. The repair of the damaged bodywork of the car is carried out after dismantling the lining from the inner/bottom side of the element. Depending on the position of the damage, we repair the bodywork of the car with a lever system if the damage is accessible from the inside. If it is not possible to approach the dent/damage in this way, then we use a system of extracting the dent from the outside using glue and appropriate tools. After the repair, the trims are put back in place, the bodywork of the car is once again thoroughly inspected and cleaned, and then it is delivered to the customer.
What should be considered when denting a car?
What is important is that you work carefully when performing car dent removal. Failure to do so may damage your vehicle”s paintwork. In the worst case, the sheet metal can be bent outwards, which also spoils the appearance of the car. Therefore, while removing the dent, make sure to work carefully and use less force rather than putting too much effort into the job. You also need to make sure you have enough working space to remove the dent. Therefore, you have to remove the interior of the car until you are satisfied with the working surface. This is very important, because this way you always have an overview of the recess and can adjust it accordingly.
What preparations should be made before removing a car dent?
Car dent removal It is very important to arrange the interior of the car so that you have enough working space. This also makes it easier for you to get to the places that need to be corrected.

Otherwise, the paint may burn. The dent must be treated with heat from the outside, so that the paint becomes elastic and re-adjusts to its old shape when it bulges out. In this way, any damage to the paintwork can be prevented. Car dent removal alone is a very risky job if you haven”t done all the necessary preparations.

For this purpose, the previously mentioned damage should first be sanded so that the git covers all the bumps. When the filling job is done, it is necessary to wait for it to dry sufficiently. After that, it should be well sanded and only then the treated area can be painted.
