This method of PDR dent removal used special tools to push the dent out. These tools were needed to do an excellent repair because of the way the door was dented.

You will see why the glue pull method and the hot water and pulling out the dent type of repair won’t work.

When removing a dent like this one, you have to know how to properly move the metal and understand the “flow” of the metal. This is needed to achieve a flat repair.

This damage had what we call crowns or high spots at the top and sides of the dent. These hold a lot of pressure and need to be pushed back down and blended back into the dent. Once that is done, then pushing of the dent is much easier and has much better results.

You will see how by just pushing out the dent without first releasing the pressure of the crowns, limited progress was made. But, just by knocking down the high spots actually “removed” a lot of the dent without even having to push or pull it out.

After bringing down the area around the dent, I then was able to continue pushing out the dent with a couple of PDR tools. One more blunt tip with tape for a soft push and then another sharp tip tool for more fine detail pushing.

In this dent removal, I also used a few knockdowns with different tips and a few different hammers. These ranged from a softer rubber for a large and softer hit. Then moving to sharper plastic type tips for more fine detail hits.

Where I repair a small door ding on a car.

[InfiniteRiffs]

Dang. This guy is legit. If he were in my area I would definitely use him. I like his patience and soothing explanation. Some of the "professionals" around here lack the professionalism seen in this video.

[MrCizy]

I just love it, , how people that now what they are doing say ''thank you for watching''. No sir thank you for taking the time for doing a video like this.
Thank you again and best wishes.

[mojojojo]

Wow. This wasn't just a youtube video. It was a proper lesson. Thank you for taking the time to put this up. You're saving people a lot of their hard earned money.

[ajgoetsch]

Definitely the best, most complete video I’ve seen on removing dents. Congratulations! You’re obviously a thorough professional. It’s craftsmen like you who we wish we had close by! I’d far rather give you the opportunity to repair my car than try myself, or give it to someone I don’t know and trust. Thanks for the video, and best wishes to you and your business.

I actually dinged my door on purpose so I could repair it using your video. Sir! It WORKED! Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!

[danielm]

As an aspiring PDR tech & having watched hundreds of PDR how-to videos - this is fantastic. Your explanation is simple to grasp and is very much appreciated. I have paid for online courses that have not been as clear and as helpful as this video. Well done & thank you!

[robmacdougall]

Great to see a real craftsman at work, real attention to detail and no "F" bombs which seems to be common nowadays ! This was a pleasure to watch and see what's involved in achieving perfection, well done Mr.

[scroopynooperz]

This is high science man, it's an art form - like working with mercury.

You an artist.

[Ryx]

After watching this extremely well made and informative video, I have come to the conclusion that I do in fact, have a very small piece of lint between by phone screen and screen protector. ... Dang it

[andyjamestf]

One of the best PDR tutorials on here in my opinion, more please!

[ControlPro]

What a perfectionist. A true crafstman for sure right here. Thank you so much for showing us all your work. From the general community, we can only dream of being so good but we know it comes from years of hard work.

[twistermike]

Amazing patience for a top quality dent removal. Well done and thanks for explaining the process in detail. Right man for the job for high end vehicles.

[PRoberts-bc]

I bet you did not go short of work after this video! Nice job. Impressive.

[gen-x]

Excellent dent man!!
Have a smaller dent in one door that I hope to get someone like yourself to correct it.
Nice work!!!

[cJ-crgp]

This is what skill and perfection looks like. This guy is a genius. Shame this isn’t available in Spain..!

[westporter]

Superb, informative video. I am teaching myself PDR for a hobby and until I watched this video, I was convinced that my struggle, in addition to not knowing how to use the tools, was poor tools. This was a very clearly explained sequence about how to approach a dent and think of metal flow as opposed to simply tool manipulation and choice. This really drove home the need to think about the many facets of a dent and have a proper sequential approach to it's removal. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[astonmarjo]

I repaired a few dents like this by pulling off the door panels and using my heat gun while I carefully pushed from the inside with a molded half moon auto body tool that I crafted out of old scrap parts. Worked perfectly 👍💯

[slamkeys]

Mr. Glass. Very rare to see an outcome that perfect on these types of videos. Keep up the good work.

You giving away your profession’s secrets is like Rembrandt or Picasso doing a YouTube vid and giving away their painting secrets. Although a picture may be worth a thousand words, knowledge, talent, skill and experience is key. Therefore, you won’t be putting anyone out of business in your profession but quite the opposite as people will realize the above qualifiers are needed.
