How I Used Hot Glue To Fix This Dent | Paintless Dent Removal

[@vebnew]

I just wanted to offer my thanks to you and your videos! I watch some videos of other people doing PDR work including yourself, ordered some tools, and spent 15 minutes on the $2400 dent in my wife's car. Within the first 15 minutes I was able to remove the 90% of the damage! I could not of done it without your videos. I ran a bodyshop back in the 70s we did a lot of swapping out of fenders, doors, bondo work and painting. I don't think anybody ever heard of PDR back then. PDR is a much more of an efficient and cost savings way of repairing damage on cars! Thanks again for the education; who says an old dog can't learn new tricks!

[@LearnPDROnline]

Thank you, I'm glad my videos have helped you learn more about PDR, it is the best repair method available for dents that havent damaged the paint 👍🏻

[@LearnPDROnline]

​@@ihateemaelYes its surprising, first that it didnt split in the inital impact and second that I can pull on it and hammer it for a few hours lol

[@robertberndt5200]

Old school cars had way thicker metal. You had to braze a metal tab on to pull. I wonder if acrylic lacquer will bend like modern paint..

[@clist9406]

I would have attacked it totally different, glue pads with a stretcher first , that releases tension and pops the dent up . Saw the guy from San Diego do it a while back , thought he was crazy at first . Then watched the magic appear . Saved lots of time and turned out perfect . Also wood backing and a pump air wedge works wonders . Take 10 techs and each do things differently, learn great tips from all.

[@kanthvickram4490]

For a lay man, it is just a dent, but guys like you...every little tap on the metal is worth a million credit !!! Amazing work of Art !!

[@LearnPDROnline]

Thank you, yes, every little tap is part of the process! 🙏

[@wyattoneable]

Hi Tom. I've worked on a few repairs using my own vehicles and I can tell you, I have much more appreciation for the skill it takes to be really good. (Especially that last 10%) My repairs are terrible in comparison but I continue to enjoy the learning process. Thank you.

[@LearnPDROnline]

[@franzelias5368]

I love that you do not add to the existing damage. Traditional bodyshop techniques increase the damage and then cover it up. PDR is the way to go!

Thank you, yes its one of the reasons I got into PDR I used to be a bodyshop repair tech but if PDR is a viable option it is hands down the best one available

[@davewebster1627]

I had a similar dent removed, i was told it was a double panel above the wheel arch and had to be done from the outside. One PDR company could not do it, a body shop wanted a €1000 to fill and spray, another good PDR guy did it for €200 excellent job. Thanks for your info

Masterfully done. I have a small question. I noticed the paint around the access hole under the tail light was slightly chipped by using the long bar to lift the dent. Is it worth putting some clear on that with a touch up brush to prevent rust?

[@LearnPDROnline]

Thank you. yes indeed if ever there is paint damage either from tooling or from the impact itself always apply some form of corrosion protection, myself I carry a range of touch up paints but also clear lacquer and corrosion wax. great question and suggestion!

[@rbmwiv]

I have been doing paint and bodywork. Years ago before pdr when everyone else was drilling holes and using their slide hammer I had a stud welded that welded copper studs to the bare metal and use a slide hammer to work the dents. Thanks for sharing your pdr knowledge. I have been trying my hand at it and have gotten decent results. Definitely better than what it was but not to the level as yours. The only way I can get it that slick is with glazing putty and a lot of sanding.

[@LearnPDROnline]

Thank you, yes I remember working in the bodyshop nearly 20 years ago myself with a stud welder and slide hammer, PDR has certainly come on a lot especially in the last 5 years or so its amazing what can now be achieved. Practice makes perfect and of course some decent training helps to show you exactly what to do and what to be looking for!

The knowledge and expertise are relevant for ICE as well as EV vehicles.

[@wakeywarrior]

What would you have done with no access points on those fine lines? My Tesla 3 doesn’t have such access points so could you have done that fine line via glue pull?

[@LearnPDROnline]

It is still possible to achieve this finish with glue only, however it would have taken me a lot longer to do, The fine creases in the dent can be opened up and repulled a number of times to get the centres up, but the actual bodylines are very tricky to get 100% with glue only and often involve a lot more tap down work to shift all the tension back into the line itself.

Can any hot gun glue be used? Kits on ebay (for example) don't supply the glue. Thx

[@LearnPDROnline]

My advice is to use PDR glue, it is very affordable and designed for the specific purpose. It generally has a better adhesion to give a stronger pull than standard craft glue and it is designed to peel off the paintwork easily with the right products so less risk of damaging the paintwork, I use this stuff - bletools.com/collections/glue/products/10-x-high-strength-clear-glue-sticks

[@PencilLawrence]

Being a bit thick here as I've aways used Hammers and dollies on dents! It's absolutely fantastic watching your video and I'm well impressed with the results,I just have one question? When you're tapping back with a hammer,is it a plastic or rubber tipped type of chisel you use? I've never used your technique before but have 2 vehicles I'm about to get started on,one with plenty I'm used to (inner sil welding 4 new arches and a few patch welds) and another with some small dinks I'm gonna try glue pulling on and a nasty crease over the front arch that has a couple of body lines running through it.any help would be useful? 😉👍🏻

[@LearnPDROnline]

Its not being thick if you do not currently do PDR, its a good question, Just as there are different shape tips for pushing the dent, there are different 'knock downs' for tapping it back down too, usually they are nylon or hardened plastic although there are a few metal ones which are used for specific damage. Here's is a link to some of the ones I use - bletools.com/collections/knock-downs as you'll see on their site there are a few options. In terms of advice it would be to start with something like the foundation course we offer www.learnpdronline.com/the-foundation-course-buy-one-get-one/ but if that is not for you then I do cover a lot of tips and techniques here on my channel, take your time to learn about knocking down highs and using glue pull for PDR Good luck!

The best glue depends on the environment you are working in, there are glues designed for cold conditions and others designed for warm climates, there are also glues designed for heavy pulling such as collision damage versus a light pull for soft dents, so it really depends on the damage you are trying to fix and the climate you are in.

does it help to apply heat when doing PDR?

[@LearnPDROnline]

It depends on the dent but yes quite often heat is good, I usually use heat when glue pulling as it helps the hot glue to adhere to the panel, and I will use heat if working on cold panels to prevent the paint cracking I nearly always use heat for deep dents too!

[@mikle65]

Hi, is the hot glue any special? Is it never sticks to the paint and if it is then how to remove it?

[@LearnPDROnline]

Yes it is glue designed specifically for PDR, I always recommend buying glue from a PDR supplier as a lot of online retailers like ebay and amazon use cheap craft household glue which is different and can be difficult to remove, my latest video offers a quick insight to glue pulling problems - kzbin.info/www/bejne/q6azhayLjsdsa68si=RXiTkeY3ExTxyM-h and then the glue I use is from BLE Tools in the UK - bletools.com/collections/glue/products/10-x-high-strength-clear-glue-sticks

[@barbaramaher3537]

Hi, I glue pulled 2 adjacent dents out but they popped back in when I took off the bridge puller. Weather was cold so do I need to warm up the panel first?

[@LearnPDROnline]

Generally if a dent is pulled out correctly it would not pop back in so I would expect there is some tension around, or running through the damage. The tension needs to be released first to prevent damage being pulled back in. Yes the cold does make a difference too, so its good to warm the panel slightly to take the chill off it but to me it sounds like a tension problem.

[@barbaramaher3537]

Thanks for this. So do I need to knock down the crowns first before pulling out the dent?

[@LearnPDROnline]

@@barbaramaher3537 As a general rule, yes, you need to release tension around the repair before pushing out the damage, this allows the metal to flow easier into its original form, however, tapping down and pushing is a repetitive process you will generally switch between the two methods a number of times during a repair

[@barbaramaher3537]

[@jeroenbeltman515]

A bodyshop told me that a dent like that with the crease in the middel will have cracked the undercoat, so that will rust soon from the inside. Any opinion on that?

[@LearnPDROnline]

As you can see in the video, the undercoat was not cracked, therefore I was able to fully repair the damage with Paintless Dent Removal. Traditional bodyshop repairers do not usually have any experience carrying out Paintless Dent Removal themselves so often do not really understand what can and can not be fixed. Most bodyshops I know sub-contract in PDR specialists to carry out repairs like this.

[@mister.wizard]

Great video! Do you ever have a dent that later on comes back on its own?

[@LearnPDROnline]

Thank you. If a dent is repaired correctly with PDR it will never come back on its own. Occasionally you get videos from 'non techs' on youtube where it looks as though dents are simply popped out, but if the tension areas around that damage are not treated then applying pressure back to the area may well push it back in, but when carried out correctly the dents do not come back.

So the tapping is to lose tension I'm assuming.

[@LearnPDROnline]

Yes generally speaking, when there is tension aka a crown we release the tension to help the metal flow easier allowing us to lift the lows more efficiently 👍

[@kay9_]

How long do I wait for the glue to dry before each pull?

[@LearnPDROnline]

It really depends on the temperature and the type of damage you are trying to remove, large dents often require more glue so have a longer curing time compared to small dents and there are also multiple types of glue specifically for different climates so it also depends on the brand you are using, for the glue I use its usually between 10-20 seconds as a rough guide.

[@1987gtmustang]

What glue are you using on this one

[@LearnPDROnline]

Hi, for this repair I am using 'clear high strength' from BLE Tools in the UK - bletools.com/collections/glue/products/100-x-high-strength-clear-glue-sticks 👍

[@kylebachman4477]

That final part getting from 90% to 100% was always the hardest. And still is

[@LearnPDROnline]

[@Á.RichardNyíri]

Perfect job 😍

[@LearnPDROnline]

Thank you! 😊

[@roganjosh91]

What do you use to take the glue off

[@LearnPDROnline]

My best recommendation is 'isopropyl alcohol' I do also use methylated spirits too

[@lebleup]

So I gather that the preference is to approach this crease from the inside first if at all possible. Then the next option would be using the glue to pull it from the outside as in this case accessibility is not possible from the inside.

[@LearnPDROnline]

To be honest it depends on the individual repair. I started off by checking what access there was to the whole panel and thankfully I could access it through the rear lamp area and also from underneath. The main dent I used hot glue pull methods to help me reduce the large dent quickly and cleanly, but the small creases either side of the main dent were easier to push from the inside.

[@paulholub538]

What kind of glue should i use in hot texas?

[@LearnPDROnline]

Hi Harry, each dent is estimated on its own merit so it depends on the size of the damage, the location, what access there is to the panel and also what items may need to be removed for the repair itself so it really depends on the individual damage and who is going to be repairing it. I would suggest looking for your local PDR technicians first and getting some quotes from there :)

What is considered "PDR"?

[@LearnPDROnline]

PDR stands for 'Paintless Dent Removal' so any dent damage that is fully repaired without the need for traditional bodyshop repairs, fillers and paintwork would be considered PDR

What kind of glue Is it is it just normal glue sticks and gun

[@LearnPDROnline]

This is the glue I use - bletools.com/collections/glue/products/10-x-high-strength-clear-glue-sticks Normal household or craft glue doesn't have the same pulling power and is often harder to remove from car paint work

Hello, I want someone who works in the field of car body repair using the cold repair method (body suction)

Can reuse those tabs

[@LearnPDROnline]

Yes indeed! I reuse my tabs many many times, occasionally tabs break over time as they get stretched, but they are very affordable! 👍

How to remove the glue please

[@LearnPDROnline]

The best product to remove glue is - isopropyl alcohol 👍

[@vancogocevski767]

When ever i'm glue pulling on dents they only come out half way, or 75% at BEST. How in the world do you manage to get them out so easy that good ????

[@LearnPDROnline]

Often when a dent will not fully pull out with glue it can mean there is tension in the form of a crown that needs to be released fully first or if the outside of the dent lifts with the centre the dent needs to be 'opened up' to allow more movement. i can make it look easy only because I have been doing it for well over a decade, keep learning, keep pushing!
