Probably could not afford it. I had a dent in my door many years ago that a buddy of mine made in my door. He said sorry and he would pay for pdr $350. Dent was less noticeable but he said it would need to be sanded and painted for perfection another $300

Yes, access to the inside of the door is often thru the window opening. A small gap is created with a window wedge, amzn.to/2ZrrPtn , and then a plastic, amzn.to/3uepgGk , or metal window guard is placed over the glass.

Superb, informative video. I am teaching myself PDR for a hobby and until I watched this video, I was convinced that my struggle, in addition to not knowing how to use the tools, was poor tools. This was a very clearly explained sequence about how to approach a dent and think of metal flow as opposed to simply tool manipulation and choice. This really drove home the need to think about the many facets of a dent and have a proper sequential approach to it's removal. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

Access to the back side of the panel is done in a few different ways. For a door, we can sometimes get access thru the window opening. Other times by removing the interior trim panel. For other panels, it can be done by removing the interior trim, wheel liners, or headlights and tail lights.

Hi there great video very clearly explained. Hope you could give me some advice. I have a White 1970 DS which has an aluminium bonnet. I put the car jack inside in a hurry and closed the bonnet which was a stud of about 8mm. As a result as you look at the bonnet from the outside it has a raised dent which has also cracked the paint in three / four places. Any tips on how to get rid of the dent? Thanks Mark
@exceldentremoval
@exceldentremoval 4 жыл бұрын
I’ve repaired this type of damage before. The first thing to do is “knock down” the point sticking up. You can see a similar video here ➡️ kzbin.info/www/bejne/hmnRl2Z6iNmkhpY Often what is needed is to make it into a dent and then having to then repair the dent. Some minor sanding and buffing is needed to smooth out the surface. If your damage already has cracked and split paint, then knocking down or any more work could cause it to get worse. It may now require painting to get it fixed.

I like how you explained the action and why you did the removal the way you did. Good explanation of your planning and dent removal skill. I am a new subscriber to your site and would like to know how you handle thicker gauge metal when it comes to dent removal. I have a 97 Ram 2500 and it bears witness to my driving skills 🙄. I have a couple of medium dents 10”x6” that are pushed in about 1/4” and no paint damage. I would like to take shot at PDR, but one of the PDR guys didn’t want to tackle it because of the metal gauge. What do you think about working the heavier gauge metals…..thanks

I’ve repaired many types of cars from probably every decade from the ‘30s till now with paintless dent repair. While the older cars with thicker metal are tougher, they still can be done. But if you have some larger dents in the truck, then it may be more than it being thicker metal that they are unable to repair.

+straight lines Yes. They are my shop lights, but I do sometimes take them out to a body shop if needed. They are easy to pack up. I know they also make a portable light. I don’t have that one but do have the Elimadent 20” light.

How to you get the tools inside the door to push the dent out? Great video btw!
@exceldentremoval
@exceldentremoval 2 жыл бұрын
There are a few options to access the back of a door panel. Most often for regular door dings, we get access thru the window opening. Like in their video. This is done by using a wedge to create a small gap and a plastic or metal window guard over the glass. The other ways are to remove the interior trim or by going thru a factory access hole.

Good question! There is not many real certifications for PDR in the USA. Some companies will "certify" some techs thru a video submission to show proof that they can complete the repairs properly, but they are not an official organization. I do believe there is a company in the UK that does offer official certification for PDR.

How do you get behind the dent do you have to take the window out?
@exceldentremoval
@exceldentremoval 4 жыл бұрын
It will depend on the damage and location of the dent. Usually a typical door dent can be accessed through the window opening. Other times it may require removing the interior trim, window glass, and belt molding. For extreme damage, removing the entire door and mounting it on a stand is needed.

@exceldentremoval
@exceldentremoval 5 жыл бұрын
Your average door dent can range in cost from $100-$300 depending on the size and other factors for the repair from a professional PDR technician. This particular dent was in the 2-3 inch size range but had easy access and a softer impression. This type could be $200-$250.

Hi! I don't have a shop in that area, but you should be able to find a good local paintless dent repair company. Just be sure to check their reviews and before and after photos of their work to be sure you'll receive a great repair.

Can someone please tell me what is happening beginning at the 4:43 mark (when the green arrow appears)? I've watched this section at least 10 times and I can't for the life of me figure out what he is doing. Thanks.
@exceldentremoval
@exceldentremoval 2 жыл бұрын
Great Question! The arrow is pointing to the spot where the PDR tool is pushing up the dent from inside the panel. This method is more of a “massaging” technique to slowly bring up the metal. Using a strong, firm or hard push that would show big movement would cause damage that can’t be repaired. You can check out this other video that shows what that could look like when someone over pushes out the damage. kzbin.info/www/bejne/sITPcnuolNqkna8
