Success with paintless dent repair on tailgate!

[MavTime]

The Mav was just sitting there parked when one of the guys at work clipped it with a forklift, I think it was the wood pallet as it didn't remove any paint but scuffed it pretty good and put in a tiny spot you could feel with your nail. I saw the amazing PDR repair work done on YouTube and decided to try PDR, I found 3 people on Yelp and sent them photos. The first two said no dice, can't be repaired, that the paint would chip or delaminate. Then the one guy I wanted to respond, no bad reviews, satisfaction guaranteed, he said he could do it for $300. When he arrived he said it was worse than he had expected, but he would do his best. He hammered for over 3 hours, being there for 4, and it came out great! So even though we have thin paint and this was pretty bad, it is possible to get it back to 99%. He made a tiny touch up on the clear coat but you can't see it. I hope it lasts and doesn't need paint repair later.

Glad that dent came out for ya! I would have given that guy a tip. He did an amazing job and I'm sure you feel much more at ease knowing the dent is gone. You should keep that guy's contact info just in case you get another one.

I'm looking into using a PDR company for a small dent in my passenger door. Is you PDR guy in the LA area by chance?

That is great. PDR is amazing - even if the paint is compromised.

Lots of PDR folks don't do paint work so just tell them to leave it as is and find a good touch up person as needed.

Not only did your get your Mav back to near perfect, your Carfax remains untouched as well keeping the value of your Maverick intact.

Not sure if he goes up to LA, it says Orange County, but possibly.

impressive! lucky you got someone who "wanted" to do the work-most people aren't interested in working unless it's quick and easy
