Myke Toledo started in paintless dent repair in 1991, trained by his stepfather at the family business, Dent Man. He learned the trade as a follower long before he led, on real cars, completely mobile, back when a PDR shop was not yet even a thing.
In 2001 it was time to lead. Myke founded Dent Time with his wife, Mary. For years the work stayed mobile and on the road, including remote training and PDR out of a detail company in downtown San Diego through 2010. In 2017 he opened the first Dent Time shop in Escondido. He still teaches, and the hands-on PDR training he runs is the same standard the shop works to.
Dent Time has always covered all of San Diego County and North County, and the mobile service is never charged extra. Escondido is home, the place to come for a brick-and-mortar visit or for the more complex repairs on high-end vehicles. The focus has never changed. Build systems so every customer has an honest, easy experience, and treat the work like it matters, because it does.

Paintless dent repair to the Dent Time standard, on every panel.

Rounds out what we can do for your vehicle beyond paintless work.
Drilling a hole behind a plug is the shortcut. It is faster for the technician and permanent for your car. Our default is removal and installation through factory openings, so the panel goes back the way the manufacturer built it.
No filler. No repaint. Nothing on the Carfax. The original paint is the entire point of paintless dent repair, and it is what protects your resale and lease return.
We give an honest preliminary range from your photos, then the firm number once the panel is seen in person and we know what is behind it. No bait, no surprise upsell. And the result carries a complete satisfaction guarantee or no charge applied.
Most repairs can come to your home or office across San Diego County. The ones that need controlled lighting or heavy access route to our Escondido shop, and we tell you which path gives the best result before you book. See mobile dent repair or how pricing works.
