[eastsideb0y]

what is that you atached to your car?

[fishn4dents]

Hey, man i own a dent repair company based out of Pittsburgh, I was just wondering where i may go to get that board like the one you use.. I watching and it looks interesting to use.. Let me know .. .Thanks..

[johnhebb1987]

good job i especially like the fact your phone number starts with 420.

[cherry666christina]

now thats skill

[PooPusher007]

thats impressive, well done

[GrandDanois]

Wow, that's impressive! I would never believe that this could be repaired without bondo and a new paintjob.

[stripermanly]

I agree absolutlely with your response and wasn't criticizing your work. Been doing this for a while and my specialty is major dents in prep for paint work. I do my best to get every major crushed dent out without having to break the paint down to bare metal. A lot of times they come out good enough with a little block and sand they're good to go. Most folks and a lot of so called PDR techs think taking a small dent out of a door and showing it on you-tube makes you look like a superior being.

[denttime]

My theory is.. as long as you understand the technique and don't jeopardize the integrity of the finish, you'll find a way to perfect the technique. The more you do pdr, the more you understand pdr. It's always a good idea to start with great one on one training though. PDR life seems to be a little easier that way..

[stripermanly]

Probably did best you could with what you had to start with. Still could see a lot of waves, but when the metal is that strectched it would take several hours to work out. I love doing PDR on these types of dents. AAA Mid-TN PDR

[denttime]

Thank you for your feedback. The only excuse I have for not a perfect repair is because I am human. it's always easier to criticize someone else's work rather than to actually prove it with their own. If you are a true pdr tech and push yourself to do more challenging dents, you'll understand it's not possible to remove every type dent 100%. However you do learn to succeed only when you learn from failing.

[jayhem175]

Dude well done, and well said. good job.

[Rugger031]

he should have glued pull it first. it would have came out better and faster

[denttime]

You missed the point. This dent was meant to show how hard pdr really is without using glue. I have plenty of glue pulling videos.

[docstruthers]

nah. the tip of that tool is felt or silk. most likely it is a medium to hard, hardness rubber/urethane covered with one of those soft fabrics. its not metal tipped. MAN those sharp edges are the hardest. he did a great job!

[foxleyleon]

wouldnt the hammer and that tool damage the paint?

[checazzovolete]

It's not 100% perfect but it is very good. Sure beats grinding down panels to bear metal and bondo'ing everything, which actually does more damage than the dent itself.

[JustinGTP]

What? How is that not 100% perfect? Have you never seen PDR in person? They did a great job and you cannot even tell it was dented in the first place.

[tld112291]

what and where did you get that metal tool you used? or was it just a crobar

[denttime]

It was a modified crow bar.

[bulit184]

wow this is sooo genious, you guys are awesome!

[joserlouis]

f!@#$k good job man

[StorminNormin1977]

That looks great. I have a mobile detailing service in Chicago, IL and am looking to expand into PDR what do you think about the market considering the economy?

[denttime]

To be honest, it will be tough no matter what. But if you have a good business base, you will do better than most who are not even in the automotive recon business. I would heavily investigate your area and create a solid business plan before paying for any type of PDR training. Good luck to you though.

[denttime]

I think truly your market is packed with PDR techs already but at least you have your foot in the door with detailing. The other challenge is learning PDR correctly and then performing correctly. PDR is waaaay harder than it appears.

[richardbissmire]

Beautifull job man.....true artist at work

[gogiean]

wow, great job

[cydonianman]

u can see a little bit of wave just under that crease but u couldnt tell if anything was damaged there. its like new.

[cydonianman]

i guess i should have had someone else fix my hail damage. took my 07 mustang to the dealership's body shop and they told me they could probably pdr the car and would call me to let me know if they couldn't. well they never called me and few days later i called and they said they bondo'd every single hail dent. they said the hail dents were too deep and it was beyond thier technology. WTF? the dents on the sides were almost neglegable :(

now the whole car has to be repainted. $ in thier pocket.

[cooksestimator]

hi just curious to see how much a dent that big costs to pdr?

[denttime]

It varies depending on the depth, location and sharpness. Generally anywhere between $350-$500.

[ejicon]

That was amazing, if you were located closer to me, I've surely have you take care of a dent on my passenger fender: 2008 WRX.

I'm going to some dude in San Dimas. Thanks for showing off a great video. Makes me feel more confident about getting this done.

[texasranger26]

wow, great job. come over to my house i have several dents that need pulled out!

[apsert]

Look at the position of light the sun is at the start and how far the sun has traveled round near the end of the vid, It must have taken all day to do that.

[ReconExpress]

Actually it took about 2 1/2 hours or so. The light changed dramatically because I was on the coast. The sun kept shinning in and out because of the marine layer. I hope that helps explain the lighting.

[denttime]

Some say the German auto factories and some say metal smiths way back when. I personally believe it was the metal smiths because those guys were true craftsman. Just in those days, the gage of the metal was too thick to be efficient. Later it was developed into PDR.

[ocapana]

Hi, how are you? I wonder if youd know where this thecnique comes from?

[lanskiii]
