German term or phrase: Rückformungstechnik
Hi folks.

This applies to fixing dents in your car. The context is:

Doch heute koennen wir Ihren XXX schnell, einfach und kostenguenstig von Parkremplern und Aehnlichem befreien. Dank moderner Rückformungstechniken.

Now I have found "Paintless Dent Repair" and this looks like what they are talking about, but I am not sure that this is exactly what they mean.

BTW, XXX is a famous three-letter German car.

Anybody out there know what this means?

"Paintless Dent Repair" wird im Deutschen unter vielen verschiedenen Begriffen geführt

Wenn man die jedoch die beschrieben Technik des Ausbeulensbzw. der Rückformung vergleicht, kommt man auf die selben Begriffe
