Panoka PDR Training

What is PDR?

Paintless dent repair (PDR) is a body repair technique for small dents and dings, including those caused by hail damage. This budget friendly repair technique is surging in popularity among vehicle owners who recognize the benefit repairs that do not disturb the factory finish of their vehicle, protects its resale value, is eco-friendly, and is completed in hours rather than days.

The PDR Process

Any shop providing PDR will have its own version of the process, which involves the use of specialized tools to eliminate dents and other minor cosmetic damage by tactically massaging the metal back into its original contours. The process can include the use of hammers to remove the damage from the interior.

The fundamental difficulty with PDR is getting your hand and the tool in a position to repair the damage without causing additional damage. That is why we use a data-driven procedure that uses information gathered on previous jobs to locate the ideal placement for our tools.

Why Do You Have to take a Training Course?

PDR is a four-step process that starts with a damage assessment by a trained PDR technician. Unfortunately, not all dents and dings are suitable for the PDR method. The assessment confirms its eligibility. Then the technician removes any components that block access to the reverse side of the dent or ding. Next, the technician decides what specialized tools are needed to effect the repair and crafts a plan of repair. The last step is the actual repair.

These steps are necessary because not all dents and dings qualify for a PDR and planning out the repair results in timely completion, which is important to customers choosing this option.

Why Do You Have to take a Training Course?

You don’t! The government mandates no official certification for PDR services in Panoka, Canada. However, customers will frequently ask about accreditation and experience before agreeing to repairs.

Comprehensive PDR training is essential. Like a kidney transplant, it cannot be learned from a book. PDR is both an art and a science, requiring a full understanding of each specialized tool and its use with various makes and models in order to achieve outstanding results.

Customer satisfaction success in the PDR industry cannot be achieved without comprehensive training. The proven record of success enjoyed by Canada PDR graduates is proof of this.
