Default Looking for a good pdr guy

Can anyone recommend a good paintless dent repair guy in the Burlington/Oakville area? Someone with experience on p-cars preferably. Can be mobile or shop based as long as I'm getting a good job done at a reasonable price.

Not in the area you're looking for but I got a dent fixed at 427 Auto Collison. They use something called a Dent Doctor which uses air pressure to fix dents. They even painted my after-market decklid for the GT4 style wing. Very reliable, great quality & cost effective.

I went to 427 Auto also. Door ding. 225 bucks and 90 minutes later and you could NEVER tell it was there. My vehicle is black and from all angles and all types of light you would never know.

T is the man. best in the GTA and great pricing especially if you have a few dings. I would not use anybody else.

T was at a VAGKRAFT sponsored car meet two years ago held at Tire23, where the deal was $100 for up to 5 small dents on one panel, fortunately all 5 dents on my DD were on the same rear quarter panel, he took 4 out completely with a hot-glue slide hammer technique, the 5th one was too severe and right on the edge of the wheel well opening, so he was only able to get 90% of it out.

All done very quickly too, faster than the traditional PDR method of rubbing the dent out from the inside, his method means he doesn't need to remove or pry interior panels open to gain access.

I am sure there are still situations where the traditional PDR approach is required.

Thanks for the recommendations guys. T seems to be the guy that pops up on a lot of car forums. Does anybody know if he does any mobile work? Also, does anyone have experience with Precision in Burlington? It's very close to me and seems to have good reviews.

Just had to come on here and give props to T (Thilan) of Dent Xpress on Matheson in Mississauga.

Putting my car back to street and HAD a few dents that seemed pretty challenging. Dropped the car off at 13:00 and went to Micky D across the street to do a bit of work using their wifi. Went back at 15:00 and the car was done.

I don't know how he does it (maybe I should have stuck around), but it's pure magic. If it wasn't for some paint damage, you couldn't tell where the dents were.

Big props

Just wanted to bump this thread. Had a ding in my Cayenne tailgate, which actually went over the bottom crease. Thilan managed to work his magic, and it's completely unnoticeable now. Cost me $200 whereas 427 quoted $5k! Wish I had before and after pics to share.

I should add that I ended up getting it done at Precision since its down the road from me. They did a fantastic job. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone in the area.
