Dent repair at IQ Tyres focuses on removing dents from your vehicle's bodywork without the need for repainting. Using specialist techniques like Paintless Dent Removal (PDR), we can restore your car's appearance quickly and cost-effectively while preserving the original factory paint finish.
Dent repair involves carefully massaging and reshaping the metal panel back to its original form from behind the dent. This technique works best on shallow dents where the paint hasn't been damaged.
Ideal For:
- • Car park dings and door dents
- • Hail damage
- • Minor collision dents
- • Shopping trolley impacts
- • Dents without paint damage
Not Suitable For:
- • Deep creases in metal
- • Dents with paint chips
- • Dents on panel edges
- • Very large dents (>6 inches)
- • Dents with rust damage
PDR is a specialist technique that removes dents without disturbing the original paint finish. Our technicians use specialized tools to access the back of the dent and carefully massage the metal back to its original shape.

Most dents repaired in 1-3 hours. No waiting for paint to dry.
