Using HOT GLUE & SHARP TOOLS to FIX Dents | BMW 320D

This customer contacted me after he found someone had driven into the rear door of his BMW when it was parked up. He took it to BMW and was told that the rear door needed to be replaced and the surrounding panels repainted at a huge cost. He contacted me to see if I could help and I managed to fix this door for him at a fraction of the price he was quoted at BMW.

This door repair was a real pleasure to do as the customer really appreciated the skill and hard work that went into restoring this door to the state it was in before it got damaged. I hope you enjoy watching it too!

[@dolfowolfo1]

This guy is an absolute beast. He explains things so clearly and has such precise control over his removals. This is inspiring me to practice!

[@1st_track_dents]

Sorry for my very late reply but it's great to read a comment like this, sorry I didn't see it earlier! I hope your practice work is still going strong 💪👍

[@VacFink]

Separate from your PDR mastery, I'm endlessly impressed with your ability to both explain your approach and illustrate the solution. Its both highly informative and entertaining. Incredible work and thanks for the time and effort to produce and share. The effort is neither missed nor under appreciated. Kudos

[@1st_track_dents]

Thank you, the videos take more effort than the repair itself, but when I see positive comments like yours, It makes it worthwhile, thanks! 👍

[@buzzkillington3354]

Great job again jake I still look at it and smile everytime I get in the car. amazing now to see how it was done....dent wizardry thanks for uploading it

[@1st_track_dents]

No problem, I absolutely enjoyed repairing this one, just so happy it came out as well as it did for you, especially on a black paint finish. Thanks again for letting me fix this for you! 👊😉👍

[@pasti67]

PDR at the highest level. Must be so rewarding seeing the before and after condition (and the reactions from your customers!)

[@1st_track_dents]

Thanks Sean, the customer's reaction on this job was priceless, It's a shame I didn't film it!

[@sooperdoopercoolguy]

Yeah, I really wanted to see the reaction, and it will make your videos more enticing. You can show a little p.i.p. with the customer’s surprised expression on the front frame, and it will draw many more views, I guarantee it, ...or your money back!

[@DentZero123]

Outstanding Jake ! Everytime when I see your video I feel like I'm in an online schooling which it really is so thank you

[@1st_track_dents]

Thanks, I try my best to make these videos informative and hopefully entertaining!

[@Casey.seeK.]

Besides the absolute superb pdr skills. The camera work is also top notch. I would like to take my car to the UK for dent repair!

[@1st_track_dents]

Thanks, I wasn't prepared to film this one, it was a last minute decision, so I didn't get as many angles as I normally would like. The following ones will be even better!

[@desertdog01]

Wow...

[@ARCHALTON69]

Amazing skill, please keep the posts coming, could watch you removing dents all day.

[@1st_track_dents]

Thanks Wayne, i'll keep trying to record them if the UK weather allows me to do so! 😀

[@joshuapaine3782]

Jake, your work speaks for itself and having watched a couple of US videos, your filming is, by contrast, excellent and the commentary is beautifully understated, clear and informative. Always look forward to your posts!👍🏻

[@1st_track_dents]

Thanks Joshua, that's very kind of you to say. I really appreciate your positive comments! 👍😉

[@georgespiers3404]

Another wicked video buddy glad you back been a while looking forward to your next video 😉😉😉👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Thanks George, yes lots going on lately so haven't managed to film as much as I would like!

[@kylebachman4477]

I'm in awe. After being a collision repair tech for 25 years. 2 years ago I got intrigued by a hail storm that hit our area and watching the techs work in my shop. I was told I'l never get it because of my years of conventional body work. It's a slow process but I'm not giving up. I upgrade tools as I go. Love watching your finishing because that's my struggle in the micro highs and lows.

[@SplittingVoices]

Wow ! It is so satisfying watching these masters working their magical skills with amazing results. You sir are a precious asset to the car community.

[@matty7768]

Immaculate repair once again! 👌🏼 I've learned a lot of extra tips from your vids , thankyou 👍🏻

[@andrewclelland9861]

Doesn't matter how many PDR videos I watch still find it amazing another great job 👌

[@1st_track_dents]

Thanks!

[@donaldemmons808]

Wow, What a great teacher and mentor ! You cover everything from the beginning to completions with easy to understand show and tell. I hired people in the pass to do this process and was always interested in learning , so I picked up a old toyota tacoma with about 20 dents to follow your excellent instructions on. This guy is the real deal !! Thanks

[@1st_track_dents]

Thanks Donald, really appreciate you watching and for your kind comments. Maybe you should book a few days 'in person' training with a good local company to do this if you start to enjoy it 👍

[@craignorris5891]

[@JonDoe-007]

I can't put into words how impressed I am. Truly inspiring. Will be attempting to achieve similar results on my cadillac cts, although surely it will be some time before I attain such high level pdr skills such as yourself. Thank you very much.

[@1st_track_dents]

Thanks Jonathan! Sounds like a great car, yes it does take some time to learn so maybe you should use an old door from a scrap yard first if you want to give it a go before you attempt it on your Cadillac 👍

[@andrewt7735]

Thanks Martin, yes the brace definitely helped to give the panel some stability, I hope you're keeping busy up there 👍

[@lologarza7900]

Watching all your videos I started my own journey in the PDR field, you are a master of the PDR , also it is impressive how you handle the oilcan on the door skin I was a auto body tech before I jump into the PDR experience, love you work and the way you explain the process, thank you for all those amazing videos and info , greetings from 🇲🇽🇲🇽🙋

[@1st_track_dents]

Thank you Lolo Garza for your kind and positive message! Your experience as a body tech will definitely help you when learning PDR as you will have some understanding of how metal moves. I am so glad my videos have either helped or inspired you to take up PDR and I wish you lots of luck and success on your PDR journey! All the best, Jake 😉

Hi Jim, that's great to hear. We all struggled in the beginning starting out in PDR so don't be hard on yourself, this craft can take years to master. If you do it consistently day in day out, you will get better and better. Take any failures as opportunities to improve and learn and you will be a PDR master in no time. I wish you the best of luck! 👍
