EXTREMELY LARGE Dent Repair on a Dodge Ram Pick Up | Paintless Dent Removal Process

[@Petersondent]

Chris, you exceed everyone’s expectations on I’m sure every dent. What people don’t know is how easy this Dent would’ve been without the Bondo you were struggling the whole time without wanting to fracture paint or make some flaky weird push that would crack some weird bondo crack. Dude this repair was phenomenal and I’m glad you shared it. I try to share everything and I have personally taking on some bigger jobs lately. With the help of that get a grip tool and the umbrella I’m rockin. Thanks so much for your work and everything you do it all pays off in the end. Garth Peterson PDR

[@thisisnotmyname4700]

What would be the cost to repair that dent?

[@kirkthebeerslinger]

Truly impressive work-kudos

[@HemiBurns]

Damn he's good.......

[@cooperatteberry6173]

@@catfisher420 catfisher420 the mud don't have to be directly in the area hit. If its just outside the area 3-6 inches or even up to 8-12 inches the metal around it reacts different as the mud absorbs the vibrations which is essentially what is required to move metal when striking it.

[@ADAMJWAITE]

This is definitely one of those skills that there's an art to it that most people fail to recognize and appreciate. Well done!

[@Dentlesstouch]

Thank you

[@hirohatki3964]

True!

[@Hammerjockeyrepair]

Yep, Most guys just go straight for the grinder and bondo! This guy is awesome!!

[@isaacc3307]

Yes and that they over charge for. Most cases u can buy a already painted part from a salvage yard OR actually get it painted YES painted for what these guys charge! Its ridiculous.

[@Hammerjockeyrepair]

I remember a few years ago a car show we have in the UK called top gear, they visited one of the luxury car companies, it was Aston Martin, or Rolls Royce or whatever, and they spoke to this old guy who was a panel beater. The camera panned down and looked right along a door panel, and it was like a sheet of glass! Then this old guy pulls a marker out of his pocket and circles all these low spots and you're like what?? Are you kidding?? Mad skills! :-)

I'm a detailer who is attempting his first PDR today, obviously on my own truck. This video definitely earned you a sub! Phenomenal, artful work. 👍

Never be afraid to price the job "right".... Quality work, with backup videos = "Right Money".... Nice job! You can work on my car any day... I'm retired now, 45 years in the business.

[@VintageAudioTech]

Bro I work at a body shop and your skill set is great. Your PDR looks a lot better than what any bondo job could do!

[@bobleone1381]

Absolute perfection. I did not think you would get it to that level. You are a craftsman for sure. Keep doing great work. God Bless!

[@billbriggs6741]

We just had a guy do 2 truck beds where I work, first one was very minor, he was done in about 20 minutes, it looked pretty good but there was evidence that there was work done and he didn’t clean the area he worked on, the second truck had a small crease about 7 inches long and a small dent, he was finished in less than an hour, for the most part the dent is gone but you can see damage from the crease and like the first truck he didn’t clean the area he worked on. He didn’t do the fine hammering that was done in this video. He didn’t use a puller or anything other than pry bars to push on the dent and punch that he used sparingly. There was a third truck with a dent about this size from the video without any creased areas and he said he couldn’t do it because it was too big. This video was awesome and the dedication is very evident to be a master at your skill, BZ, job well done

[@rogerolsonmn]

I honestly did not think you could fix that with a prior bondo fix well done !!!

[@edwinoliveras8221]

You are an extremely patience person, and I think that virtude is vital for doing such beautiful work. You are an incredible artist. Thank you for this video. Your friend from Puerto Rico, Edwin Oliveras

[@robertheinkel6225]

I saw it but still don't believe it. Very nicely done.

[@rcdogmanduh4440]

Wow!! That's a work of art you did. Amazing these days to find someone that take genuine pride in their work. My hats off to you.

[@trucknut04]

It’s amazing how you can repair these dents. It is for sure an art and steady eye. Nice work

I appreciate that!

[@Rypie89]

Fantastic job! We need more people like you in the word who actually care for others property.

[@trykpingup]

I have a window tint company and I've seen a bunch of PDR guys over the years. I have to say that this was an impressive job, especially having to work around someone else's repaint. Nice job man.

You are definitely, an artist. I love to watch people, that love their work. Thank you, for going the extrra mile.

[@Dentlesstouch]

Thanks

[@gicyu812]

Wow. Well done! Truly skilled art work. Beautiful to see some people still take pride in elevating their skills to this high of a level! I hope I can find someone half as good as you to do a repair I need.

[@Dentlesstouch]

You nailed it. A lot of people just do mediocre work in any profession. problem with that is you don’t learn and your missing out on your true potential.

[@myinfinitestate1586]

Holy shit. Looks like you put a Brand New rear quarter panel on that truck. Beautiful work. Nice technique...

[@johnmehaffey9953]

Love seeing professional workmen doing their job and overcoming difficulties that arise,I fully believe that it's how you react to problems that define who you are, I was in construction and when I walked onto a site and there was a problem I said it's happened so let's try and fix the problem, I used to get very cross and angry about other people's mistakes and having to go and fix their errors,perhaps I was to much of a perfectionist, but then I realised right it's happened let's fix it and I became a calmer person still prone to outbursts at times but that was because of others laziness,so watching this reminded me to take a break and return with a different mindset, top class work well impressed with your attitude

[@wwrite]

Amazing work, taught me that you don’t have to sand and paint every dent.

[@timgirvin2582]

If this is an example of your typical work, then WOW! You have an amazing talent. I've always been amazed by paintless dent repair, but what you did was seriously several levels beyond what I've seen before. I hope you are well paid!!

[@metalguitarfailarmy5213]

I've been a bodyman for 26yrs, and I enjoyed this video, well done!

[@robertjenkins8630]

Metal GuitarSolid I have auto body repair in my background. Could you have fixed this without body filler?? I could not have and never would have thought it was possible. And no I'm not a bondo nut. Just never seen anything like that done before. I'f its for real it is nothing short of amazing!!

[@Bonezz024]

Appreciate the video. I'm guessing many other people came to this video with no knowledge at all of PDR. I'd recommend for future videos giving an explanation on why you're doing things such as hammering around the edges and explaining which tools you decided to go with and why. Excellent job though. Came out great!

[@BRollOffroad]

i know nothing about body work, really amazing to watch. 8:57 is a real good demonstration of what's at work here, awesome.

[@Hammerjockeyrepair]

the bodyshop I worked for as my first job was awesome. The main guy used to stomp on to crush up soda cans during lunch time and then get every single wrinkle and crease out for fun!! Great work man! Keep it up!! This is the real way to do it!!

[@chrisrainey3588]

Extremely knowledgeable On how to take dents out!! PDR IS AN ART! I sure as hell wouldn't have the patience to do what they do! Phenomenal job!!!

[@exceldentremoval]

*Great repair Chris* !! Sometimes these *large damage repairs* that take several hours can seem like there is no end in sight. You mentioned there being mud in the panel from the previous repaint. It would have been interesting to see a paint depth gauge show how thick it was. I've run into similar repairs and sometimes I think it also could be a heavy primer or just how much extra paint is on the vehicle. that makes these difficult to push up like normal.

[@lincolnlane9235]

ART! This is total art, all on its own. So much patience and concentration involved, resulting in UNBELIEVABLE results. Things are getting fixed and straightened today that we could not have dreamed of, as recently as the early 2000’s. Excellent work!

[@ryanwolfe911]

That's F incredible. I'm continually amazed at what can be accomplished with PDR.

[@jameseddy6835]

I have seen this done on smaller jobs and it was incredible. Your large dent came out just as well. Keep up the good work.

[@RaiseTheBAWR]

Dude! Your are a miracle worker! Simply amazing!!! Are you sure you arent just a wizard using magic while making it look like your using tools?.?.?.?.

[@justplainducky]

Thanks guy, I got a dent in the bed of my F-150, got a great paint job and you gave me ideas of tools I could make to do the job without repainting

[@ArcticAstrophysics]

Wow I thought they were going to show drilling it and using a slide hammer to pop it mostly out then sanding it down and using bondo to fill it, but no using just what you did I wouldn't believe it if it wasn't filmed, amazing work

[@alshotrodsandratrods8780]

Body shops don't drill them to pull dents anymore. They weld on a stud and pull it then grind off the stud. No holes to fill and no stretched out holes to hammer back down. I tried PDR. I'm not that talented or patient. It took a long time and still needed hammer and dolly work before bondo.

[@NoahTheFacts]

Wow, I had no idea this method of dent removal could be this good. That was just incredible, super impressed.

[@vadsanatesta729]

Wow!! Very impressive. Very good work my friend. You made that look WAY to easy..

I really really like that in most of your videos you use the dent dials alot. Just watching your videos i get to learn how to use dent dials more than Sal himself released on his channels about his products. To make it worse he just removed most of his videos about dent dials. How upset i feel spending over 2000 dollars on dent dial products and when i wanted to watch his videos to learn how to use them he simply removed them all !!!!!! Thank you Chris. Big time

[@kevinyancey958]

Awesome job. It goes to show how this the metal is, that it can move like that and not kink it stretch. And for the clear coat to give without cracking on a panel that's not supposed to move, unlike a plastic bumper cover. Had it been twenty years ago, or more, you wouldn't have been able to do that, especially on a body line. I've done box sides in seven hours, on 90's pickups, back when I worked in a body shop.

[@robertjenkins8630]

[@denttech2515]

I commented in another video. High strength steel is becoming more and more common. It is a beast. I prefer aluminum over it. Remembering who uses it and where is something we, as an industry, need to document and charge accordingly. I used to think bodywork was the reason a panel wasn't moving right, until I did research on high strength steel. Check it out. Thanks for the video. Edited: I'm not saying bodywork didn't play a part in this repair

[@Dentlesstouch]

Thanks for your feedback . I definitely agree with you I much rather work with aluminum

Outstanding job ! It takes lots of patience in manipulating them panels to reverse the collision. I know because I've tried it many times and often make a mess of it. If you're going to take on this trade you must breath it and eat it, day in and day out. Practice is the key ! And of course, proper tools...

As a body shop owner, I would charge about $1100 to repair and paint this bedside in the traditional way, insurance would give me much more. I wish i had this skill!

These guys do this for much less. You could sub out the work and profit the extra cost while still continuing to keep your own shop busy. Get out there and make it happen. Enjoy the extra 20 percent a year. You know, after you cut me out 5 percent as a thank you.
