How Long Does It Take to Repair Dents in Sheet Metal?

[OMaria]

4S shops generally take 1 to 2 days to repair dents in sheet metal. If the dented area is relatively large, it usually takes 3 to 4 days. Below is an introduction to the relevant repair methods: 1. Hammering Method: The hammering method is one of the most common techniques for repairing dents and deformations. For deformations, dents, and bending of column-type parts, tools such as wooden blocks, mallets, pry bars, hammers, and dollies can be flexibly used to directly strike the deformed area to restore it to its original shape. 2. Sheet Metal Shaping Clamp Method: The sheet metal shaping clamp is a more advanced tool for automotive sheet metal repair. Its structure is simple, and it is easy to use. After placing a sandbag behind the dent and roughly leveling the surface with a mallet, select an appropriate roller to attach to the shaping clamp. Then, install the shaping clamp on the impacted area of the vehicle and adjust the adjustment bolts to apply slight pressure between the rollers.
