Can hail damage dents be repaired?

Hey folks! This is Mike and Tom from Pacific One Collision and Restoration.

Welcome to another Q&A session where I answer questions from you all on the internet.

Today's question is:

"Can hail damage dents be repaired?"

Answer:
Yes, hail damage can be repaired, but the approach depends on severity. Some hail damage can be addressed with paintless dent removal, while heavier damage may require traditional bodywork.

In cases where aluminum panels are heavily damaged, PDR may not be cost-effective, and straight body repair or panel replacement may be necessary. Each hail-damaged vehicle needs to be evaluated individually.

Summary:
Hail damage is repairable, but the method depends on severity, panel material, and cost-effectiveness.
