At Dentline Ltd PDR, we recently had the opportunity to carry out a precision Paintless Dent Removal on a rare and low mileage Ford Focus RS Edition finished in the iconic Nitrous Blue. A high impact, quad layer paint that’s both eye catching and notoriously difficult to match through traditional car body repairs.
This RS had only covered 3,000 miles since new, and understandably, the owner wanted to preserve its flawless factory finish. The damage, however, was quite noticeable. A deep dent running directly through the bodyline of the front wing, caused when another car door was opened onto it.
Repainting this kind of finish wasn’t an option. The client was keen to maintain the car’s originality and value, so we recommended our specialist Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) service the ideal solution for this type of damage.
Why Paintless Dent Removal (PDR) Was the Perfect Solution
Traditional auto body repair methods involve sanding, filling, and respraying. All of which can devalue a performance vehicle like the Focus RS and compromise its original paintwork. With Paintless Dent Removal, we’re able to reshape the metal without affecting the original out of the factory paintwork, preserving the original quad coat layered finish and avoiding any colour mismatch.
For prestige, low mileage, and enthusiast owned vehicles like this one, PDR is the only approach that restores the panel while keeping the car as original as possible.
The Repair Process
The dent on this Focus RS was particularly tricky due to:
- The depth and sharpness of the dent
- Its location, which ran straight through the bodyline
- The risk of cracking or disturbing the complex Nitrous Blue paintwork
We approached the repair with extreme care and precision. Using a combination of specialist PDR tools, LED lighting, and panel access techniques, we gently pushed from behind and tapped from the surface to methodically massage the metal back into place. Our aim was not only to remove the dent but to do so without disturbing the factory finish in any way.
The end result? A seamless panel restoration that left no trace of the original damage, and most importantly, no repainting required.
