Good afternoon, what type of dent puller do you use. I do like the pulling ability that it has? Thank you. Have a great week.
@AutoBodyDoctor6 ай бұрын
The dent puller is from “Pro Spot International.” And the name of the machine is: “PR-2 Multi-Task Welder.” Hope that helps!

Wish he would have said the approved repair times for the bumper and QP.. I’ve worked for a big insurance carrier as an estimator and for a shop as an estimator… if I was working for the shop I’d be looking for prob 8-10 hours on the QP w/ a blend to the rear door… if I was at the insurance company I’m prob allowing 6-8 hours on the QP and a blend to the rear door

This video was uploaded a while ago so unfortunately I do not remember the exact repair times that were given from the insurance company. Thanks for watching!

A guesstimate on repair times?

Great job! Did you have to do anything in particular when using the dent puller on a Tesla. ? Welding on sn EV,?
@AutoBodyDoctorАй бұрын
The steel used on Tesla vehicles are very similar to steel used on Toyota vehicles. Before performing any welds on a Tesla, it is a MUST to properly shut the vehicle down and cut off both the low voltage battery and high voltage battery. For both safety and to not possibly damage the computer system in the vehicle.

Seems like the rear side is your specialty
@AutoBodyDoctor6 ай бұрын
The rear end is a more common place for people to get hit!

I thought yall replaced entire panels and just recycled the damaged part.
@AutoBodyDoctorАй бұрын
Nope, that is not the case
@ThatOCdudeАй бұрын
Seems Like a huge waste of time. Can you just order the panel you need in the right color and just bolt it on?
@AutoBodyDoctorАй бұрын
Body panels do not bolt on and off. Only doors, hoods, deck lids, and fenders are panels that bolt on and off. The other panels have to be either repaired or replaced completely. A process involving welding and glue rivet bonding.
