Paintless Dent Removal (PDR) Using the Harbor Freight Crossbar Dent Repair Kit

[@vintagemotorcyclerepair]

Thanks for this, I'm here at HFT considering to get this kit for motorcycle fuel tank dent repairs, and this answered all my questions. Bonus points for doing it all one handed! 🥳

[@VampyreX13]

If your tank is steel, which it probably is, you may want to get some stronger glue sticks on Amazon. Also, make sure you have your gas cap off when you're pulling the dent.

[@vintagemotorcyclerepair]

@@VampyreX13 I already have some gorilla glue sticks, I will use that instead. It's hard to believe glue stick of any kind would work at all, but I'm about to find out! Thanks!

[@VampyreX13]

Let me know how it works out. This kit is really meant for the softer metal on modern cars, but I've had some limited success using it on steel. I did not have any success with it (or heavy duty suction cups) on my '92 Cadillac door dent, but that thing is built like a tank.

[@vintagemotorcyclerepair]

So, after trying 3 different types of glue stick and laughing at how lame that was, I thought about trying epoxy, but I just welded a threaded stud to the tank and used the bridge tool to pull it out. That worked 💪

[@porschmn167]

I have the same kit and I made sure to clean the car area and the plastic piece you apply the glue to with denatured alcohol, I also use it to clean off the residual glue stick from the car and it works great to remove a dent, but it does take several attemps to get the dent mostly or completely out. If you clean things well the pop as the glue releases is loud.

[@captinbeyond]

Wonder if doing this to an older vehicle ( 19 year old Tundra ) would the paint not come off with the glue/pulling process? Also ,the bracket with the suction on either side of the pulley keeps you from pulling the dent out too far?

[@johnbednarz1424]

Works pretty good for a cheap tool, used it on my son's car after he hit a deer for the smaller dents.

[@NicholasNealGetz]

I used it on the deer. Worked great actually.

[@pcm7315]

As soon as he said, "...it pisses me off", I was in. Same scenario for me, thanks to some jerk at a home supply store. Looks like that kit did a pretty good job.

[@VampyreX13]

I think I'm going to upgrade my dent puller to one that has multiple size attachments since I have a few tiny and long shaped dents I discovered. I'm looking at amzn.to/3AA9kA7 right now.

[@taonow369]

You can use a hot glue gun and a bottle , like a plastic coke bottle, put the glue on the cap then place it on the dent - let sit for a minute or two- screw in the bottle to the cap then slowly pull the bottle and it will pop - then pull off bottle and remove any residue from the glue

[@bigbadbillybrad]

Nice. Would probably work better than this piece of junk “tool.” No idea how anyone is saying this thing works. It’s falls apart immediately. Unless I bought a defective unit this thing has zero possibility of success

[@taonow369]

@@bigbadbillybrad ya it depends on the dent also you can use various size bottle caps and use them in unison to pull out a dent - sometimes crease dents are just to difficult and you have to use a dent gut - usually easy to find and it will save big bucks - I had a pretty bad crease dent I couldn’t get out - Auto shop was 1200 for the repair- dent guy was $320 and he did a great job took about 2 1/2 hours

[@bigbadbillybrad]

@@taonow369 well I tried 3 separate bottles and glue doesn’t hold to cap tight enough. Might give it another try or 2, but not feeling hopeful

[@taonow369]

@@bigbadbillybrad ya depending on the size of the dent may need a pro dent guy- they also sell locking suction cups in the tile and flooring sections at Lowe’s or Home Depot that may help - There only like 8 bucks - and has to be put on a flat surface but may be a option - good luck

[@timmholl9238]

So, I tried this on my 2018 Tacoma on the rear side of the bed. It pulled the ding out all right, but it also left a mountain in its place. Caution to Toyota owners. The metal is very thin. To the body shop I got to get it professionally done. I should have listened to that little voice in the back of my head.

[@VampyreX13]

Oh no! Glad you were able to get it fixed.

[@misterxman23]

The raised metal is what you want then you use plastic tap down tools to level the metal

[@ragazzi25]

I bought this kit today from HF and it works pretty well but you must wait longer than 10 second before pulling the dent out! otherwise the glue does not stick to the paint very well.. Also It will take multiple attempts to fix a dented area..

[@lumossxmap5636]

Good job, nice seeing a DYI tool that really works. This looks like a must have tool for any car owner, my cars hood was smacked by a small stone while driving this week, leaving a small dent. I'll for sure give it a try. Thanks

[@VampyreX13]

It definitely took a while to do, but it worked. It also has a tool you can use with a mallet tap the edges of the dent to help lift it out. I messed around with it on some scrap metal pretty succesfully.

[@gandurisrinivas8503]

I want to buy the kit. Is it available online?

[@VampyreX13]

Honestly, if you're going to pay shipping to buy this online, I would try to find a better tool.

[@buckminsterfullerene2294]

What are you talking about, The amount of time to do this procedure is nothing compared to repairing and painting the panel!

[@kimcyrusm8995]

The purpose of the video is to restore that part of metal into original form and preserve the original paint. Repainting requires body filling to achieve even surface but I hate putting body filler on my car.

[@chrisscott8991]

PDR pulls can take 3 to 4 hours to complete ..also tapping down the highs first before the actual pull helps alot and using a heat gun so you don't crack the paint

[@travisstamp7428]

Will a heat gun get the metal too warm for the glue to set properly?

[@msk3905]

I bought this and try to remove very similar dents as yours and I have had zero luck it, every time I try to pull on dent hot glue breaks free giving no pulling power. I have tried to pull easy, hard, let it sit long, cleaned everything well so glue sticks etc. nothing works! Am I missing something?

[@VampyreX13]

Sounds like you're doing it right. I had to repeat the process 15-20 times before the dent came out. Depending on your dent, you may need to use the tapping tool that came with the kit, but I didn't go over that in this video since I didn't need it at the time. There are some other channels dedicated to PDR that are full of more tips.

[@sheldonfishbein3006]

Cross bar cracked the first time I used the kit. On my way to return it to Harbor Freight. Guess you get what you pay for.

[@VampyreX13]

Wow, that sucks. Their return policy is pretty good though. I would just get it exchanged and try again before deciding on dropping money on a more expensive dent pulling kit. They have more intricate kits with other tools in them, but you need a lot of practice to get good with them depending on your dent. I spoke with a professional dent puller and he said it took him years to get where he's at and he's still learning. The simple crossbar dent repair kit is nice if you don't have a lot of experience and the dents aren't too bad. If you have a really bad dent though, it might be worth saving up and having a pro take a look at it.

[@sheldonfishbein3006]

They do have a good return policy. They had no better quality tool in stock so I exchanged and will try again.

[@VampyreX13]

Let me know how it works out.

[@oldguy8177able]

yes i used it very happy i had multiple dent basically all gone ,but i found the puller would remove dent but once dent remover pulled off,dent returns,so i used heat a hair dryer that was when things started to really work,so once you remove puller apply heat be careful not too much or you strip paint off,and also let it cool for say 5mins, ok bye

[@VampyreX13]

Nice tip. That reminds me, but you can also try using a heat gun on a dent followed by a can of air held upside down so it blasts cold propellant out. The sudden thermal change can sometimes get a dent to pop out on it's own.

[@scottchristian5056]

Rubbing alcohol will break the glue away. After your done with a pull. This dent might need a dozen pulls. Personally I'd use a rod. Make sure u have a very light hammer and a tap down. Also a vertical shop light. Not in broad daylight. Hard to explain. But there other dent videos you can watch on KZbin.

[@kristopherlowry1602]

I have an ignorant question. Can we not fix the dent by taking the inner door panel off and pushing from the other side?

[@VampyreX13]

Yes, you could do that but you would need to be able to see the front of the dent while you were working. They make an entirely different set of tools for doing that. It's actually difficult to see the backside of the dent sometimes if it's too small.

[@socksonfeet8125]

THIS SEEMS TO ONLY WORK ON PANELS WITH A CLEAR COAT. I just tried it two motorcycle tanks that are sanded down. The glue wasn't strong enough to do anything. It would peel from the tank before actually doing any pulling.

[@VampyreX13]

I was able to mostly pull a small dent out of one of my canister exhausts with it, but it was a smooth and shiny surface.

[@cmonaghan68]

You need that slick surface for the glue to have a good hold

[@bradyvelvet9432]

I'm scared to use the glue method Is that glue totally safe to use on car surface?

[@VampyreX13]

As long as it's OEM paint and it's not flaking off, you should be fine.

[@dhbytheocean]

Use could also use cold glue

[@jrh87]

The rods work better but you have to know the technique. I once paid 80$ for a guy who did this for a living get he removed 14 dings perfectly on my impala and never could tell the car had any dings after that

What about a really deep dent in a Schwinn bicycle fender. The rear rack came down with weight and mashed it in. The fender is a compound bend, and the damage is really deep in medium large area.

[@VampyreX13]

This is really only good for modern cars with the thinner metal. For your bike fender, you have better luck unbolting it from the bike and using PDR hammer set to gently shape it back.

[@williamcattr267]

How much easier would this process be if you used a heat gun beforehand? I have seen some autobody/dent repairmen use a heat gun.

[@VampyreX13]

It might make it a little easier, or it might make it take longer for the glue to cool down. It wouldn't hurt to try. I know it's easier to work with dents when it's warmer out.

[@michaelyoung9060]

Do you not use release agent for more effective results? i used agent, and it did nothing. I noticed you have to apply glue generously, and have to wait up to 5 minutes for glue. it says like 10 secs. Not a chance. I'm thinking if i don't use release agent it might take hold.

[@VampyreX13]

I didn't use the release agent, even on a newer kit I got that's similar to this. I just use alcohol and a plastic scraper to help get the glue off afterwards if it's really stuck.

Hi, good vid, but I have a question for you; A dent stretches the metal, so if you pull the dent with this gadget wouldn't it just invert the dent and you'd end up with a volcano instead of a sink hole? Once metal is stretched, it's stretched. Cheers

[@VampyreX13]

As long as it's not a major dent, you can use the fact that metal has a memory and work it back to it's original shape. It requires other professional tools and tricks aside from this consumer level hot glue gun puller. There are articles online if you search around.

Maybe try amzn.to/3soqP3v or just search for "pdr glue sticks."

[@jayyoung3572]

This thing won't get out even the slightest of dents.

[@VampyreX13]

I had pretty good luck with mine, but it finally broke and I got a better one from amzn.to/3yogZlG.

[@wolfgreen162]

Yeah, you have scumbags everywhere who don’t respect other people’s car’s

[@alfierose]

Yeah...what that guy said!

[@DomClimbs]

how does got glue not remove any paint lol?

[@VampyreX13]

If hot glue pulls paint off your car, then you have a bad paint job. I've used this style puller on various cars without pulling off paint.

[@johntonkinson1175]

These kits are worthless . The glue doesn’t hold the piece that pulls on . As soon as you start to crank on the nut the pull piece pulls off of the dent where it’s glued. And it didn’t come with the glue removing fluid. Nothing.. TOTAL SCAM IT DOESNT PULL ANY DENTS . THE GLUE DOES NOT STICK

[@meking3258]

Dude you ain't letting glue dry long enough it takes atleast 5 minutes glue is not suppose to come off car when turning out knob 🤦 oh boy .. no wonder it took you an hour

[@VampyreX13]

10 seconds is what the manual said so that's what I was following when I did this video back then.

[@itsdc29]

man.. this is the worst tool EVER

[@VampyreX13]

Lol. It's the most basic tool for simple dents only. It's not my favorite to work with because of how long it takes and how repetitive it is, but it got the job done.

Just show us.

Why bother. Still not normal.

People now days are secretly full of hate & endve

[@Tbabydripp]

Excuse me Joseph but may I ask what "endve" is??? Hint: Envy✅ 😆

[@irishguy200007]

A gimmick?

[@VampyreX13]

It does actually work. It's just a long and tedious process. I still use that same kit to this day, but generally only for small dents and dings. Anything larger and I usually just pay a PDR professional.

[@mrree5409]

These are totally rubbish - the glue is never strong enough

[@VampyreX13]

you can get different glue stick strengths. Also might need to let the glue cool down longer that I was doing in this video.

[@mrree5409]

@@VampyreX13 thanks for your reply - Have tried different waiting times, from 2 mins to 10 mins - still rubbish. I've warmed the dent - same rubbish. There were black glue sticks in the pack, would they be stronger do you think? Nothing to explain why there are clear and black sticks, so in the dark with that one.

[@VampyreX13]

@@mrree5409 the black ones should be stronger. If it still doesn't work, it's possible that the metal you're using it on is just too thick. While this kit works well enough on my tC, I can tell you that it will not do anything for my old 92 Cadillac because the metal is so thick and hard on that car.

[@thehuntx]

This guy talk to much.

[@VampyreX13]

This is one of my older videos when I started doing this channel. All my new ones are much better and more concise.

[@maliukasSs]

how much can you talk about nothing?

Blah blah blah blah blah 5 seconds of useful video blah blah blah blah blah... you want something done right, you got to do it yourself....
