Hailstorms don’t strike evenly. Some areas of a vehicle absorb repeated impacts while others remain untouched, creating an uneven appearance across the surface. Commonly affected areas include the roof, hood, trunk, and upper body panels where hailstones strike with direct force.
This type of damage often includes dozens of small impressions that qualify as small dent repair, even though the overall damage may appear extensive. Because hail dents usually don’t break the paint, many vehicles are ideal candidates for paintless dent repair, allowing dents to be corrected while preserving factory finishes.
