Washing and Paintless Dent Removal – Volvo EX60 2019

Sometimes a car does not need new paint. It simply needs its bodywork carefully restored to its original shape. A Volvo EX60 2019 arrived at our service with several small dents on the doors and side body panels, caused by everyday parking and normal use.

At first glance, this type of damage may not look significant. However, once the vehicle is clean and light reflects off the paintwork, every uneven area becomes immediately visible. Our goal was to remove the dents without unnecessary repainting and preserve the original surface of the vehicle.

Thorough Wash and Bodywork Preparation

Before starting the repair, we carefully washed the vehicle. A clean surface is essential for dent removal, as it allows us to evaluate the damage precisely and follow the reflections of light across the bodywork.

The preparation included:

• gentle washing of the bodywork and removal of road dirt
• detailed cleaning around the damaged areas
• safe microfiber drying
• inspection of the dents under suitable lighting
• preparation of each affected area for accurate repair

Once the vehicle was clean, we could clearly determine the extent of the dents and select the correct approach for each area.

Paintless Dent Removal

For the repair, we used the PDR method, which allows dents to be reshaped without repainting the entire panel. This solution is ideal when the original paint remains intact and the primary issue is deformation of the body panel.

For the Volvo EX60 2019, we carried out:

• detailed inspection of each dent
• precise correction of the affected areas using PDR
• continuous monitoring of light reflections on the surface
• restoration of the bodywork shape without affecting the original paint
• final inspection of the complete vehicle after repair

The result is smooth bodywork where light no longer highlights damage, but instead reflects from clean and even surfaces.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is PDR dent repair?

PDR is a method used to carefully reshape dents without repainting. This means the vehicle keeps its original factory paint.

2. Can all dents be repaired using this method?

It depends on the size and location of the damage, as well as the condition of the paint. It works best for small to medium dents without significant surface damage.

3. Why is the car washed before dent repair?

Clean paintwork makes it possible to see imperfections accurately in light reflections and helps achieve a more precise repair result.

Conclusion

The Volvo EX60 2019 received a thorough wash and paintless dent removal. Using the PDR method, we restored the smooth appearance of the bodywork without interfering with the original paint. It is a gentle and effective solution that helps preserve both the original condition and value of the vehicle.
