Auto body repair & detailing: small ding, doughnut, trish

Question
how much would it cost to repair a small ding about the size of a doughnut hole?

Answer
Hi Trish, Cost factors on repairing a small ding will vary depending on the location of the dent and type of paint on the vehicle. As a rule a small ding should estimate at no more than 1 hr. to do the repair and 3.5 hrs to refinish with a base coat clearcoat.Totaling 4.5 hrs + the paint and materials which will also vary in the costs. This can range from $70.00 to $120.00  Plus shop labour anywhere from 40 to 70 dollars per hr. I hope this information helps...Kim
