It takes practice

Thank you! You have some great content on your channel too! 🙏🤙🏻

Thank you Navdeep! 🙏

My pleasure 🙏

Your comment tells me you are not a PDR Technician so I can forgive the misconception. Any 'good' PDR tech will out earn any PDR trainer. That's why most trainers myself included continue to work PDR alongside the training side of the business

My advice is to start learning the foundation skills on a practise panel or donor car first and not on a real life dent, partly because you will mistakes, but also its easier to learn the basic skills on an undamaged panel before trying to learn on a dent. Yes there is also a lot of mental work in problem solving and pursuing through the repair process. The hardest part is usually the discipline to learn the skills, go slow and learn everything you can with what is available to you.

@@LearnPDROnline thanks. Your videos are so helpful because they show the attention to details i probably wouldn't even notice and the importance of pushing and pulling the metal where you need it slowly. I think that's where my main battle is going to be. Patients

You're welcome 👍

Yes, PDR can also be carried out on Aluminium panels

Thank you 🙏

Thank you, and that's not a stupid question at all. There are many brands to choose from and some are specifically designed for warm/cold climates so it depends on where you are but I use this stuff from my local supplier in the UK - bletools.com/collections/glue/products/100-x-high-strength-clear-glue-sticks

In theory yes if the paint is undamaged and the metal is workable, but your local PDR technician will advise you further as it can often depend on access and how much the metal has been distorted or displaced.

I am not sure on their shipping, but here is a link to one very similar to the one I use - www.dentmagictools.com/q-23-pdr-white-striped-ding-board.html

Do you mean cold glue repairs? - kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6OnqYWwnbdnkLMsi=IwxP-TiS6Bm-MrNH

Thank you 🙏

Thank you 🙏

Thank you. Each student has a different learning curve depending on how much time they have to put into their practice, hand eye co-ordination and current experience, generally you can learn to do simple small dents within 3 -6 months but the more advanced damage can take years to truly master. I have plenty of students learning this skill later in life and going into retirement as a part time business! I am happy to help and advise you further if you do decide to get started with PDR

I think they are good and serve a purpose for small stretched dents, however, I do not use one myself so can not really advise much on them, check out Martin Sadler's channel - Dentremover01 he has a few videos demonstrating them 👍

It depends on the glue and the temperature of the panel to be honest, but usually somewhere between 10-20 seconds for most of my glue pulls, soft pulls I may do quicker and if I want a harder pull I may leave slightly longer 👍

Thank you for your kind words Phil, Yes the PDR techniques have come along way over the last few years and are slowly bridging the gap between PDR and traditional Bodyshop repairs!

Yeah it is a slightly different process when working older cars with thicker metal, the older ones were harder to dent but often physically harder to fix. Panels today are easier to dent but often get stretched which is tough where as the old thicker panels would take more to damage them. I don't generally use the hot glue method on cars that are more than 25 years old as the paint seems more brittle!

😂 Same goes when you have a headache, stub your toe and you soon forget your head was hurting!

Thanks, life in general is a balance too ha ha
