Building a slide hammer and a rail bridge just went to my project list! I'm much more confident about my bashed in truck bed that was t-boned, thanks to these videos. (even if I end up in bondo.)
Again, God bless you Marty. I'm a beginner and I'm so glad I found your teaching. I purchased a book on the Fairmount theory. I study your online classes and the book all the.
This was awesome to watch!!!! The drawings really compliment your explanations.
Thanks Dolf.

Thanks Joe.
You’re a very good teacher brother
Thank you Buddy.
Watching you draw it 2d really made me to think more about metal flow vs just high and low. I’m gonna beat on the hood stand a bit and practice this. Thanks
watched all your videos and learned a lot. dent repair fascinates me. I’m gonna watch some more of the theory videos. Truly Amazing. Down to earth I see you enjoy teaching . You love it and it brings joy
Your welcome Mark.
Fantastic information! Thank you very much for sharing.
Your welcome Chris.

Thanks Zurab
Passing on valuable knowledge. 👍🏽
Thanks Winter.
Very good video, very well done. Thank you.
Thanks Steve.
Very good info here. Without naming names, there are a couple of popular channels that post big collision type repairs with pulling towers and bridge pullers. In my opinion they often get carried away with attacking the crushed-in body line right away. Often times over pulling it and trapping the metal above it between the body line and crowns at the top of the panel. They still end up with spectacular results, but I’m pretty sure they would save a ton of time and have a much easier repair if they would soften those crowns up a little with some tension and tapping them towards the body line. I understand why they do it that way, because it’s so impressive to see that body line move so much metal on the rest of the panel.
Thanks Mark. Applying the correct theory always saves lots of time and gets a cleaner repair. There are some other Larger dent theory videos and repair videos where the Fairmount method is applied on this channel you may want to look at also.
I wish i had a teacher this awesome in high school 😂
great lesson, thanks
Your welcome Chi.
Well you get alot of Knowledge to share with us Young Techs. So we can Rock before, we stop Rolling...lol.
God bless you ser👍🙏🙏🙏
Amazing my friend
Thank you sir.
You are the best 👍😎
Thanks Brani.
Great video and its making more confident to give this a shot. I need to buy the correct hammers though ; right? I used a ball peen hammer on a old car a very long time ago , it left little marks in the paint. I'm assuming this hammer with the flat circular head will prevent any kind of marking in the paint.
Ii's a highly polished hammer that will not damage paint as long as it's used cortrectly
I think the crowns and waves are the hardest part of paintless dent repair. A wave can be sent further down the panel if not worked properly and rushed. I am just getting into all this and I think the crowns and waves will be my biggest hurdles.
There are different factors to consider but it's not that hard once you get the basics and the big picture understood.
Thank you so much
Please can u send. Least of the size for all peace to make the stand i wana made 1
Hey sir apreciate yur videos yuv learned well i went to school for bodywork they stressed that flanges ridges bodylines and crowns were to be fixed first and it was the body lines that had to be worked first but ive done dents where the metal wont move if u dont work the buckles first so i started working the lines the edges and the buckles each a little at a timeand that works good wut do u think of this method?
I do it the way shown on the video most of the time. The other methods don't give you as fast a finished repair.
Sign me up. 25yrs master mechanic my back can't take engine work anymore but I still love the car business. I need to try my hand at PDR?
You could put the glue tool on while you roll the medal back in and wind up the glue tool at the same time
Hi I’m extremely interested in your videos as I’ve a project and like to try and do things myself, I’ve got access to both sides it being a Vespa leg sheilds issue I have, I can’t seem to find any videos on this kind of issue as in where to start, could you be so kind as to tell me your thoughts on this, I’ve got images but don’t seem to have the ability to send
Kind Regards
John
Thank you!.❤
Your welcome Gabi.
Hey, Can you help me, please? I need some translation((
great guy very good teacher.
So i bought a set on amazon, with the glue hammer and different points. I have a slight dent on my truck gate from a rock. I was thinking of trying it out myself and pulling it out right from the middle. But what you're saying is that I need to work on the area around it with the hammer? and then pull it out from the middle ? if thats correct, I was definitely clueless.
It depends on he dent, but usually I work the crown down fist. There are other videos that talk about this subject on my channel also.
What brand of Hammer and dolly do you recommend ? I saw a video of saying that it had to polished hammer
Eastwood tools or Finesse PDR tools have good quality hammers for reasonable price.
Heat helps The iron soften or pvevent color written
💥 Makes ✅ Sense💥
You have found the reason why ,why is that dent acting like that the why is the most important think in this business when you undrestand you will find the right way ,your a teacher in nature 😘
Yes it's ask about the correct theory! If you don't get the theory right you are wasting your time and throwing money down the sewer.
I was wondering if this is a type of blending but your not spreading out the damage to hide it your moving it into center to then push it out.
No blending just releasing pressure off the crown before picking up metal.
What good knock down hammer I'm jus starting out is flat bar any good.to hit just not anoth weight. Tap down hammer self taught do odd work just small dent but due covid have no income can't win
A wavey line is longer than a straight line.
How do you hide the extra metal from being stretched
The line is wavy because of the dent and crowns,.not because of stretched metal here.
so to Finnish the little low at the end.you work your way to the center. what tip do you use? this has been the bit I'm struggling with😞
No I hit the low with a sharp tip tool right at the start and stay there until finished. You may want too watch the theory party of this video again to help you.
@@TopGunPDRTraining I thought you said right at the end to come from just outside where the edge of dent started and work your way back to the center.. I think my tip needs to be sharper it a 1mm ultra dent point
@@jonno-cr8lv Sorry, I was thinking of my sharp dent video. You can come in from the outside in if the center is resisting you to help release it. I usually finish with a hard tip at the end after soft tipping the body line to restore the general shape.
@@TopGunPDRTraining thanks I already have watched it 3 times. just got a deep dent out about 98 percent with no mess just taping down around the center took about 40 minutes. this paint on car bonnet is real smooth so it's hard to get it 100% your videos are a great help thanks. can this be achieved with a sharp root beer tip? just I'm worried about scratching paint with sharp metal tip
@@jonno-cr8lv Can't really tell without seeing the dent or at least a pic.
Can you link me a video explaining fog and light usage?
Hi Philip. I can't because everyone is different and the first step is to determine which reflection type or types is right for you and that can't be shown on a video.
@@TopGunPDRTraining I just figured if I knew what I was looking at, this would be a place to start. Right now I have no idea what fog is. And as far as long view short view horizontal vertical I don't know when to apply them. I know you would say well until you know don't even try it. I'm looking at training schools but right now I'm trying to get the basics down so I can take full advantage of the short class time. I know you would say don't do that. But here in Florida and I guess everywhere. 2 week class is a down payment on a new home. I did miss your call yesterday and was going to call back I've just been busy. I was hoping to find something local in order to save on lodging. I enjoy your videos and appreciate your straight forward attitude. Any way I didn't mean to ramble on like that. I can sum up my goals by saying . I'm 52 in a great job that I will probably retire from. I'm looking to train and master my skill so I have something to fall back on to supplement my income and stay busy. Plus the movement of metal in pdr is fascinating to me. Thanks for your candor . Have a great day.
Great explanation can u teach me
Please contact me at the number listed below the video. Also make sure you have watched at least the first 3 videos in my training channel area.
@@TopGunPDRTraining ok is it free
@@JBIRD575 The videos are free. The training prices are on my website.
@@TopGunPDRTraining okay what's the guarantee am I guaranteed to learn can't pay for nothing if there's no guarantee
@@JBIRD575 You really do need to watch the videos I mentioned. Most people CAN NOT learn PDR. The videos will let you know if you can learn PDR. I only train people I know will succeed and have a solid marketing plan. There is no guarantee as none of the students I accept ever fail to learn.
Bro what is the procedure to order this toolkit
I don't sell any tools.
👍
Hi I'm self taught im just doing minor jobs to I getting buy 1 bar changeable tips but dents tabs I have is chins tabs hopless but to get ice tabs in Glasgow in Scotland if possible just till covid passes could you sale me 2 or ,3 ice taps I'm fiber optic enginer but since works stoped had to look different field just need some decent taps when thiscovid passes Al post you bottle brandy just to get me started on minor dents

Please lengveg in hindi
you have got to be a tin basher (fabricator) by trade?
More of an Old school automotive sheetmetal repair / finisher / fabricator. LOL
Top Gun PDR Training , very talented, as a fabricator you learn how to move and unstressed metals. We had leather bags filled with sand in the old days , put it behind the panel and you could work it hard, is this used now?
They are definitely used by me and others for PDR, but in a different way than your probably thinking. Many of the old school tools and techniques are being used again for LDPDR ... Finally!!
The only way to learn how to fix dents is to get in there and do it. There’s a lot of people who can “fix dents” but not so many who can make it look good under a light. So what’s going to set you apart? Go for perfection every time.
