Auto Dent Repair in Medina, MN

Some dents are souvenirs from runaway shopping carts. Others? Silent casualties from a surprise hailstorm or a rogue baseball in the driveway. Dents are oddly personal. You might not remember each one, but the big ones? They come with stories. Medina roads are full of charm, but let’s not pretend they’re kind to cars.

The decision to get auto dent repair for them isn’t always about vanity. Left unchecked, dents can expose your car to rust, reduce its resale value, and even affect its aerodynamics over time. And while paintless dent repair (PDR) sounds simple in theory—massage the metal back into shape without repainting—it’s a delicate art rooted in material science and manual finesse.


PDR technicians assess whether the dent’s size, depth, and paint integrity qualify it for the technique. Then comes the skillful manipulation that involves accessing the panel from behind, using specialized rods and levers, applying controlled force without cracking the surface. It’s part science, part sculpting.


But not every dent is PDR-ready. If the paint is cracked, the metal stretched too far, or the panel’s aluminum properties resist reshaping, traditional methods that rely on body filler, sanding, and repainting may be necessary. Choosing the wrong approach? That can lead to mismatched panels or permanent devaluation.


In a town like Medina, where people invest in their vehicles and expect them to reflect care and quality, having an experienced dent repair service is all you need for vehicle maintenance. That’s what Dent Kraft PDR offers. With advanced tools, trained technicians, and a reputation for precision, we fix dents and restore the value of your vehicle with every pull and push.

Happy Customers in Medina, MN

As always Don and his team meticulously fixed a very tricky dent along a sharp body line of my car. It was done perfectly. am always amazed at the craftsmanship, friendly environment, very, very fair pricing and even a work office while I wait! I am a “car guy” and have been going to Dent Kraft for over 25 years! I will trust my cars with no one else but Dent Kraft. Believe me, they are the best.

Don, Kim and the crew were absolutely amazing. They worked with me and the insurance company to get my truck up and running as quickly as possible. They called with updates often and kept me in the loop throughout the entire process. My truck was hit with baseball sized hail and it came back looking brand new again. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone. Top notch service.

My husband and I are very thankful for a friend's recommendation to get my car fixed at Dent Kraft. Owner Don did a superb job. He went above and beyond all expectations, and at such a reasonable cost. Don and his General Manager wife, Kim, bring exceptionally positive energy, high standards, and outstanding service to their business. It's obvious Don cares deeply about all he does. And his three-and-a-half decades of experience make him a master craftsman. Harold Klemp once wrote, "Service to others is a natural outpouring of one's love for life." Don and Kim exemplify this quote to the fullest. --Jerry & Mary, very grateful Dent Kraft customers.

Dent Kraft is the ultimate place to have door dings removed. Their competition could give a ball park price and not a guarantee on workmanship. Don at dent Kraft not only provided excellent craftsmanship but competitive price and turnaround. Great place to have work done. My 2015 mustang GT looks showroom perfect!

I had an outstanding experience with Don and his team at Dent Kraft. My new GMC Canyon AT4X got dinged on the door by flying metal debris on the interstate and left an annoying dent. I drove into Dent Kraft on a Monday to get an estimate and got one right away and also made an appointment for two days later. Fixed the door ding while I waited in their very spacious and comfortable upstairs "loft" -- even did a couple of Zoom meetings for work. Great outcome and a very reasonable price! Can't recommend Dent Kraft enough...

Contacted DentKraft with a difficult door dent and spoke with Don who was great. Emailed photos of the dent to him and he called me with a detailed description of what they normally do, what they would try to do with my dent, and what to expect. Decided to go forward with what was estimated for time and price. Had the repair done in a day and was very satisfied with their work. I wouldn't hesitate to bring my car back for future PDR needs.

This is the best place for paintless dent repair. I got a dent in my new car and stopped by for an estimate and the owner Don greeted me and was super helpful. Got an appointment the next day. Turns out I knew Don from when I worked at a dealership back in the 90’s as he worked fixing dents on cars in the used car lot. He did exceptional work and that has only gotten better now! You can’t even tell where the dent was! If have dents, take your car or SUV to Dent Kraft! You will not be disappointed!

Have been a customer since they were located in Minnetonka. Had occasion today to use them again for a nasty dent in my motorcycles gas tank. As always, they made it vanish without a trace! Fair pricing, great waiting area, friendly and fun team. Why go anywhere else?

Mark R.

I wanted to share my outstanding experience with Dent Kraft. My wife and I had unfortunately parked too close to another car and we had gotten a sizable door ding in our new vehicle. Don took care of the ding and we can't even see where the damage was on the vehicle previously. My experience with both Don and Kim was exceptional and I highly recommend this business. Thanks for doing a great job for us! Regards, Rick

I am so impressed with this business. I stopped by to ask a question, and at no charge the owner Don partially fixed an issue with my car and showed me the resources I need to finish the job (it’s something that can’t be fully addressed with paintless dent repair). He was courteous, incredibly helpful, and very generous with his time and expertise.
