REMOVING these CREASES with PDR!!! | Ford Puma LIMITED EDITION

This was a very complex dent on the front near side front wing of a Limited edition Ford Puma. The customer wants to restore this car, so wanted to keep the car original. So I saved this wing from having to be filled and painted, which will help to retain the original integrity of the vehicle, increasing the value of the car for years to come!

One for all you Ford Enthusiasts today! I thoroughly enjoyed the challenge of repairing this creased up wing and the customer was over the moon as it kept the car original and free from lots of Bondo/filler!

[@nnjjooffrraa]

How long you need to repair?

[@1st_track_dents]

@@nnjjooffrraa Without filming this, it would have been around 3 hours maybe less:-)

[@nnjjooffrraa]

You are great,make more interesting videos

[@1st_track_dents]

@@nnjjooffrraa Thank you so much, I am looking forward to making many more!

[@shimarlie1]

Could you please do a video on all the tools you use, what you can't do without, what you use constantly etc? Love your channel. Frank Rizzo.

[@madduck692002]

I don't care who you are or where you come from; If you can do Dent removal to this level... you're a genius!

[@Captainrave]

He’s amazing. Repaired a dent on my AMG on a really tricky part of the wheel arch. It was fascinating watching him work. When he was finished it looked like new again. I said at the time he should teach others, he has a very special talent. It’s also my pride and joy, so I was so so thankful.

[@tigerseye73]

This is a lost art in the States. Now they just bolt on a new fender and other plastic pieces and charge $5000. Many years ago, body men used bumping hammers and blocks. Like you, they analyzed the damage to remove the dent in reverse order from the impact progression. They were craftsmen, not parts changers. You sir, would qualify with the best of them. There is still hope for humanity. Thanks for this video.

[@user-vp1sc7tt4m]

Yup, that's how I restored the rear quarter panel on my girlfriends 69 Javelin after someone crunched it back in the late 70's. I learned how to work metal using hammer and dolly from my Dad who worked the same in WWII on airplanes. He could create bubble out of flat sheet metal in no time.

[@bubbajames1002]

So true brother. My grandpa just passed in 2020 he was the most skilled man I've ever ever been around in my life. He has told me some stories fella. He was a body man before bondo was a thing, he said they would heat and melt led to smooth her out.

[@ReptilianAnusWizzard]

If you want to pay 7000 instead of 5000

[@whitsundaydreaming]

Maybe they are master wing swappers but the new paint is not going to be the same as original.

[@faerieSAALE]

When anyone has talent that truly excels - you must give them full proper accolades! This man is one of them! WELL DONE - outstanding achievement.

[@1st_track_dents]

Thanks Lindsey, I really appreciate you taking the time to watch and for your positive comment! 👍

[@bbb462cid]

The dislike is from the auto painter down the street

[@darrell3118]

I have been an Auto Refinisher for 43 years now , And I am always impressed with these guys that are this talented! Never has pissed me off , I am a firm believer of NOT breaking the Factory paint if you can do it ! I need to go to school for PDR , it would be another skill I could have !

[@bbb462cid]

@@darrell3118 you never worked in my godfather's shop. Even I had to pay top buck and wait six weeks! He gave me my first car. I had to rebuild it myself.

[@atultayade]

No, From the one who is shooting in the rain

[@jammealyangga]

I agree

[@AutoBodyEverything]

The funny thing is... rather than dislike, why not learn PDR and add it to what you know and can do... if there’s one thing a painter hates is poor bodywork and paint bcs we all know prep is90% of the finished product. I picked up PDR bcs I’m tired of correcting and fixing other ppls work just so I can get more paint work done at the end of the day. Why hate when you can improve yourself.

[@woodchuck243]

I really like the way you break down the starting point where to go next great information, nice job working through the rain

[@jaco7675]

This is artistry.

[@Extremegaz25]

I've been repairing cars since 1980 and enjoy watching your craftsmanship- there's always something to learn, thanks for the knowledge and keep up the good work.

[@dunnock343]

You’re lucky with the headlight. Lots of cars these days have you pulling off the front bumper entirely. I wish you would go a little bit more in-depth with why you picked the tool you did and also make a video of each tool you have and explain what it does and any useful info about it. I’m a auto body Tech and want to learn more about PDR and you already have a good platform built.

[@davyarthurs]

🥇 medal awarded for that - skills!

[@JeffreyStrader]

I have become a TRUE BELIEVER in these techniques after a Paintless Dent Technician removed some dents on my wife's 2019 5th Gen Black Ram 1500 4x4 Bighorn.........It looks better than new!!!!

[@gvoorhees1]

Awesome job done by a true craftsman. ln 2006 I bought a new Silverado PU. I had it a week when a deer decided to T-bone my truck. He put a large dent in the rear driver's side door and very large dent in the bed quarter panel. I called my dealer and he sent a man out to fix it. I was amazed that he was able to push the dents out so fast. To do the door he drilled two holes in the door latch area for access to his tools (used rubber plugs to cap the holes) and for the quarter panel he removed the taillight. It took him about an hour start to finish and charged me way less than $200. There was no evidence that the truck was ever damaged. He called his company Painless Dent Repair. You guys are awesome.

[@Bewareofthedog69]

What with the multiple creases & dents, & that nasty kink, (& the rain) I have to say this is one of your finest jobs Jake, absolutely beautiful skill in bringing this one back. Fantastic 👍

[@1st_track_dents]

Thanks! I'm never trusting a weather app again! Yes, this was a real challenge but luckily it all went to plan 😃

[@MrSuperheterodyne]

@@1st_track_dents I'm amazed by what you can achieve. What a skill. I bet it's about knowing when to stop as well - thinking back to that episode of Father Ted when he tried to fix the dent on the car that Father Jack dented. :-)

[@jcfly1]

from someone who does metal work - that's a great job.

[@brettfoster6786]

Excellent skills. The tools alone would break my bank account.

[@5tr41ghtGuy]

I have been curious about this for years - thanks for making a nice video detailing how this is done! Clearly there is a lot of practice and skill required to achieve a perfect result, but it's still nice to have an idea how this works. And again, thanks!

[@VacFink]

The most informative videos on the topic by quite a bit. Watching how working out the dent flattened out the crease under the wheel arch does loads to help explain how the damage is connected. Great work and great video. Thanks.

[@1st_track_dents]

Thanks, yes I think it must be quite therapeutic to see the metal move in real time 😉

[@alanreynolds5985]

I would really like to know why people give videos like this a thumbs down. What is there not to like about a craftsman showing you his talent.

[@alanreynolds5985]

@Jinn Genie I had a dent on the back of my Corsa caused by an idiot schoolboy aiming a kick at it. He's still alive, just. I called a PDR firm and he turned up and said he didn't know if he could actually do it as it was such a complicated dent. Well, he not only got it out perfectly but the paint was undamaged. He said he wasn't completely happy with the repair but I couldn't fault it at all. That just shows the pride they have in their work. That Ford had paint damage from the creases which was understandable but with modern paint finishes they frequently resist damage from impact. If you've never seen a PDR expert at work, then you have no idea of their skills. The jobs I've them do first hand are outstanding.
