Unhappy question on dent repair

Just discovered a parking lot "ding" over my rear wheel well, on the rim itself. Anyone know if the paintless dent repair methods would work in that particular location?

Yes, PDR ( paintless dent removal ) is the way to go. Go reputable shop that has been around for a while. If you are in the Maryland, DC, Northern Va area I can recommend someone.

Doesn't the paintless dent removal depend on the dent being on a flat, almost centered position of a body panel, though? My location is not, the basis of my question.


Thanks.

Paintless Dent Repair should work. They fixed a hail dent in the cross beam between my windshield and the door. Excellent job...

Paint Less Dent repair

IF The Dent is in a Double wall IE seam It will be very hard to remove the dent ..Unless You Drill through the first layer of sheet metal to Use the Dent Rod...

Make sure the Tech is a Good One .....
