Have you ever encountered the unpleasant scene of a dent on the body of your beloved car? Minor accidents, sudden shocks, hail or even hitting the door of someone else's car in the parking lot can spoil the beautiful appearance of your car. In the past, the only traditional solution was smoothing with paint and putty, which was not only time-consuming, but also greatly reduced the value of the car. But today, an advanced technique called paintless smoothing with factory color retention has revolutionized the auto repair industry. If you are looking for the best way to restore the beauty of your car and you want to avoid a sharp price drop, this article is for you. Arash's specialized collection of Safkari is ready to serve you by using the latest methods in the world.
What is paintless smoothing while maintaining the factory color?
Paintless smoothing while preserving the factory color, which is called PDR (Paintless Dent Repair) in global terms, is a new and elegant method for repairing dents in the car body. In this method, the expert technician restores the body shape to its original state using special tools and steel rods, without the need for sanding, plastering and repainting.
The most important feature of this method, as the name suggests, is to preserve the authenticity of the car's fabric color. Paintless smoothing while preserving the factory color is the art of master craftsmen who patiently repair body damage in such a way that no trace of the accident remains. In the Safkari Arash collection, we have perfected this art.
Why is paintless smoothing the best choice while keeping the factory color?
Choosing a car body repair method is an important decision that has a direct impact on the value of your investment. There are several reasons why car experts always recommend paintless smoothing while keeping the factory color:
1. Maintaining the financial value of the car
In the car market of Iran and many countries of the world, a car that is painted faces a sharp drop in price. When you use the method of paintless smoothing with the preservation of the factory color, you have actually preserved the originality of your car. Car buyers are always looking for "colorless" cars, and this method guarantees that your car will remain in the category of colorless and low-functioning cars.
2. Save time
Traditional smoothing and painting is a time-consuming process that includes several steps, including scraping paint, puttying, priming, painting and polishing. This process may take days or even weeks. But smoothing without paint while maintaining the factory color is usually done much faster. Many of the minor repairs at Safkari Arash are completed in just a few hours.
3. Lower cost than painting
Although PDR smoothing requires high skill, but due to the elimination of the costs of expensive consumables such as furnace paints, putty and killer, its final cost is usually more economical than full smoothing and painting. By choosing paintless smoothing while keeping the factory color you will save both time and money.
4. One hundred percent color matching
One of the biggest problems in car repainting is the lack of exact matching of the new color with the old color and factory fabric. Even the most skilled painters sometimes cannot create a color that is exactly the same as the factory color. But in paintless smoothing while keeping the factory color, because no paint is sprayed at all, there will be no worries about the car becoming two-colored.
Procedures for smoothing without paint while maintaining the factory color in Arash smoothing
In the specialized collection of Arash smoothing, the process of colorless smoothing while maintaining the factory color is carried out with obsessive precision. These steps are:
- Detailed inspection and expertise: First, our technicians use special lighting to check the depth and severity of the damage to make sure that the car's paint is not cracked and it is possible to perform PDR.
- Access to the back of the part: To apply reverse pressure, it is usually necessary to open the inner covers of the doors, roof or fender so that the tools can reach behind the dented part.
- Selecting tools Suitable: Using PDR rods with different series that are chosen according to the shape of the dent.
- Massage of the body sheet: The technician massages the metal sheet from the back with small and controlled movements so that it slowly returns to its original form. This step is the most sensitive part of colorless smoothing while maintaining the factory color.
- Final leveling (Blended): Finally, using special hammers and Teflon pens, the outer surface is completely uniform so that no wave remains on the body.
Tools used in paintless smoothing while maintaining the factory color
PDR technology depends on special tools that every regular polisher does not have. At Arash smoothing, we use the most advanced equipment in the world to provide the best services colorless smoothing while maintaining the factory color:
- PDR rods: These rods are made of very resistant alloys and are bent at different angles to reach the most difficult parts of the body.
- Glue Puller: In places where access to the back of the sheet is not possible (such as door doubles), special adhesives and stretching tools are used to pull the glue from the outside. This technique is one of the important pillars of colorless smoothing while maintaining the factory color.
- Light panels (Line Boards): These lights cast parallel lines on the body. Any distortion in these lines indicates the unevenness of the surface, and the smoothing machine removes the defects with its help.
- Magnetic and induction devices (Hotbox): Induction heat is used to collect the stretched sheets, so that the metal is collected without damaging the paint.
What damages can be repaired with paintless smoothing while maintaining the factory color?
Many customers ask if any type of accident can be repaired with this method? The answer is no. Paintless smoothing with factory color retention has limitations. Damages that are usually well repaired with this method include:
- Dents caused by hitting the doors of other cars.
- Dents caused by balls or blunt objects.
- Damage caused by hail (which kills the roof and hood of the car).
- Light accidents that did not result in paint spilling.
- Dents on the doubles and body lines (provided the smoothing skill is high).
The important point is that if the car's paint is cracked or spilled at the place of the impact, you can no longer use the method of smoothing without paint while maintaining the factory color and it will be necessary to stain or paint. The experts of Safkari Arash can inform you about the feasibility of this method with a simple visit.
The difference between traditional polishing and modern polishing (PDR)
Understanding the difference between these two methods will help you better understand the true value of paintless smoothing while maintaining factory color. In traditional smoothing, the focus is on hard hitting with a hammer and punch, which thins the sheet and creates waves. Traditional plasterer usually uses stone putty to cover these waves. In the long run, the putty may crack or the color on it may become dull.
But in the modern method, which is performed in Safkari Arash, there is no harsh blows. Everything is based on the principles of physics and metallurgy. Colorless smoothing with factory color retention means respecting the molecular structure of the metal and restoring it to a state of balance without excess stress. The final result in the modern method is a smooth and polished surface that cannot be detected even with paint thickness gauges (if it is not licked, of course).
The role of expertise and experience in paintless smoothing with factory color retention
Good tools are necessary, but not sufficient. The most important factor in the final quality is the skill and experience of the master craftsman. An inexperienced ironer can crack the color of the fabric with inappropriate pressure or create small ridges (known as welds) on the body that cannot be repaired.
The technical team of Safkari Arash consists of professors who have completed PDR specialized courses and have the experience of repairing hundreds of luxury and ordinary cars in their portfolio.
