High-Value Crease Restoration
Client:
Local Business Professional
Location:
Plano, TX
Vehicle:
European Luxury Sedan
The Challenge
Deep 8-Inch Horizontal Crease
The client presented a deep, 8-inch horizontal crease across the driver-side door, caused by a runaway shopping cart. Most traditional body shops quoted a full panel replacement and a three-stage paint job. This approach would have cost thousands of dollars, required a "dirty" Carfax report, and compromised the vehicle’s original factory finish.
The Solution
I-CAR Trained Precision Extraction
Leveraging over 30 years of experience and specialized tools from Camauto and Dentcraft, Greg performed a high-precision PDR extraction. As an I-CAR trained technician, Greg understood the specific metallurgy of the door's high-strength steel. He worked the metal from the inside out, slowly massaging the crease back to its original form without cracking the paint or requiring body filler.
