Many say our paint is thin and cheap. Got caught in a hail storm last week and wondering if PDR will work on the maverick or will it just crack apart?

Sorry to hear, I had hail recently where I am and was fortunate enough to be able to pull in garage. I left wife’s car out in the driveway. 😆

Had some damage to the door frame from the Thule roof racks. PDR worked well and no problems with the paint.

Yes, but only because we only had pea sized hail and no damage. I’ve got orders to cleanup garage to fit both vehicles in there. 😳

Awesome thanks! My hail dents are small but have guessing a hundred or so.

PDR is amazing, you should see the damages they can get out. You should be fine.

I have used PDR guy on some of my vehicles and with an experience individual you will never know the damage had occurred. Just as long as your paint has not been chipped and damaged.

How do you have dented metal without paint damage considering how thin the paint is said to be? :unsure:

I think PDR was originally developed for hail damage repair.

I had PDR done on my 2012 F150 xlt screw when it was a year old and got caught in a hail storm with quarter size hail. Left about 20 good hail dents on the hood, roof and A pillars. Ford dealer pdr guy removed them in a few hours the very next day.

$0.00 deductable comprehensive is a great thing.
