PDR - Paintless Dent Repair

Picked up a car park dent in the middle of my driver's door - not serious but is quite visible.

I was thinking of taking it to a PDR specialist, but having a look at some of the techniques on tinterweb I suspect they will need to remove the door card and other stuff inside the door. This concerns me because I don't want my trim messed up.

Anyone had any experience with this sort of repair ? MY12 D4 HSE Ipanema Sand

Last one I had done the guy used a special adhesive to pull it out - absolutely perfect
Prior to that, had one on a Merc in an awkward position on a door - same guy drilled a tiny hole in the door shut and got to it that way, again, perfect and put a small bung in the hole.

Would always recommend the guy, but looks like he is some distance from you

Had a number of dings repaired by similar....As always, depends how good the individual is .... But in my experience they do not remove any panels... Inside or out and go in from areas with their 'de-dinger' we don't know exist.... It's amazing ..... Shocked well recommended! (If u get a good one).... 2016MY Discovery HSE - Black
