But who's finished product is going to look better? The Pro with years of experience and ten of thousands of dollars in tools, or our boy Zach?

why does nobody ever talk about the mini songs donut makes for the diy or don’t videos? Like they’re so good and funny 😭 11:53

This is one of those things where I would ABSOLUTELY spend the money on a pro.

[kshitijdixit]

Man This PRO vs DIY series is just awesome
It gives lots of entertainment and information
Love it

[bradentibbles]

I went with the pro. I had my entire car done for $800 CAD, considering my trunk has some hail damage I am amazed that it only cost $800 to get every single dent out of my car. It looks brand new.

[cardkoda]

I have always said and continue to say, Donut has an absolute Stellar cast. Everyone is so entertaining and great to watch, especially Jobe. Even better that their content is so fucking sweet

[warrior_poet]

I’ve been doing body work for about 6 years and even I can’t do PDR it’s a completely different skill. So don’t feel to bad zack

[snowASS]

As a professional PDR tech this is extremely enlightening to watch, I will be asking my customers who claim they "take out" their dents on their own to watch this video, I applaud a good repair attempt though.

[TotalxTrollk]

Jason was super informative and seemed really comfortable talking to the camera.

[smashbother]

4:00 Zack: "I spent a hundred bucks on my whole set."
Jason: "We will see how that works out."
Someday I wish to have Jason's level of professional confidence.

Covid must have hit music industry hard when James Hetfield is fixing dents on cars.

[Dentlesstouch]

My prayers have been answered 🙏🏽. I’ve been wait for you guys to make a video about paintless dent repair.

Being a PDR tech for the last 17 years I can say this video was spot on.

[jaymopar]

When I used to work as a BIW(body in white) tech before. I used to pull dents left and right in the production line.It's way easier on the bare metal and aluminum surfaces, but when pulling dents on a painted car. u gotta have patience to do this job. Thats why I applaud these PDR techs for keeping the job done. I thought I was a pro dealing dents, but when I tried PDR, fuc! I was struggling 😩. Patience is a virtue thats for sure.

[zedbets]

I apprenticed with a PDR guy for almost a year. I still wasn't very good at it after that long. It's an art as much as a science and takes a lot of experience to be an expert.

[veteran]

Just putting this out there. This is the only channel where I don't skip the sponsored video message.

[mcfistoyourfood]

KEEP BRINGING THE DAMN HITS!!! the music that's being tailored to each pro is so amazing lol 🤣 need full length versions!!

[nfschido]

I have uncles that have serious years of experience doing PDR. My first time taking out a dent with their tools took me 5 min to do just one, and they can do it in 60 sec or less and far better.
Without watching the video I'd say a PRO is the way to go.

Good content, Donut never dissapoints.

[konnergarrett]

As a glass company owner I need to see a diy windshield install or crack/chip repair

[colinhess]

If you’re just wanting to clean up some dents in your truck/beater, go for it. But if you care at ALL about the paint/appearance then hire a pro. It CAN be done, but you’re more likely to make it worse. Ask me how I know.

[Tux]

POV: zach just wanted to do this episode so the pro can remove the dents from his miata

[infantsorrowtt]

I've been doing pdr for a while and Jason seems like a nice guy most older pdr guys especially hail techs have such a ego but from what I've learned is most hail guys sometimes struggle with side panels and oversized dents.
