Default PDR...does it damage the other side of the sheet metal?

Getting ready to get some Paintless Dent Removal done and I was wondering:

-When the PDR guy constantly rubs the dent to see if it is flush with the panel, did he scratch your paint job or clearcoat?

-When he used the little tools to work the dent out, did it scratch the hell out of the underside of the door (ie. inside of the door or whatever panel that was damaged)?

There will be no damage done to your car. Sometimes they need to drill if the ding is an obscure place, but they will put a plug in it and you will never know it was there honestly.

I drove through a hailstorm, PDR'd, but the entire car was repainted so I don't know.

It was. They sucked the dents out or whatever, then it was repainted.

That sounds more like Dent Removal, not Paintless Dent Removal.

The dents were removed. Then the car was repainted due to chips in the paint from the hail. But the dents were gone before it was repainted.
