What We DoWe do more than just eliminate annoying dents and creases that take away the cosmetic appeal of your vehicle!So, what “more” do we do? We help you retain the value of your vehicle by keeping it in its original factory finish because our dent removal technique doesn’t compromise your vehicle’s original paint job. And we do all that at only a fraction of the cost of conventional panel and painting.Panel & Paint Shop’s dent removal techniques involve “planishing” work. Technicians hit the external surface of the damaged panels using a planishing hammer (panel hammer) assisted by a piece of metal that goes behind the panel called a dolly. Using repeated, relatively soft blows, the dented surface piece is smoothed toward the curvature of the dolly. However to achieve this, planishing hammers are in direct contact with the outside surface of the vehicle which causes the paint to chip away. Once the paint is chipped, Panel & Painters will sand the area, apply filling, apply primer (under coat) and only then the final paint is sprayed. Panel & Paint techniques are a lot more time consuming than PDR, require a lot more steps to achieve the same effect and offer risks of paint mismatch. At panel and paint shops you will be charged for two services and not one: the removal of the dent itself and the subsequent paint job. You will spend anything from $300 to $1000! Dent Magician, however, will remove your dents without compromising your vehicle’s paint job, which helps to retain its resale value. Repairs commence at $120 incl GST per panel.
Panel & Paint: Depending on the size of the panel to be repaired, it will cost you anything from $350 to $1000. Dent Magician: Prices are per panel, starting at $120 incl GST (Retail) Panel & Paint: Repairs need to be done at the shop, so the vehicle can be away from hte owner for up to 3 days or more. Dent Magician: Repairs are done onsite and finalised in about 30 minutes because we come to you and perform the removal while you wait. Panel & Paint: Repair technique causes the vehicle’s original paint to be ground away subsequently requiring a paint touch-up which offers risks of paint mismatch and could decrease the value of the vehicle. Dent Magician: Repair technique doesn’t damage the vehicle’s original paint job helping retain its re-sale value. |
