Methods

Pressure technique
This professional technique enables us to repair your vehicle without painting. Lever tools are used to remove the dent when carefully kneading the back surface of the damaged metal sheet.

Glue pulling
Inaccessible components of the vehicle like the roof frame are repaired by means of the adhesive method. This means that an adapter is shortly glued on the dent with a special hot glue and then pulled off using a slide hammer. The metal sheet deforms to that effect and the technician can now press it back into its original shape.
