Today's video is about tool selection and how I choose the best tool for the job. I hope it helps when it comes down to things to consider when wondering which tool to reach for...
Great, thanks for sharing. Am I correct in saying that everything you pushed in the video was with the tape on the rod? I would not believe that it is possible to push such a small ddent on bodyline, through the tape without lifting the surrounding area. Especially on your long pushes. Thanks for your comment and more videos like this :)
@@adamcinematic9499 Thank you. Yes I did leave the tape on throughout this repair however I do often reduce the amount of tape as the dent gets smaller. I only used a small amount of tape initially and I do also regularly finish repairs with just the metal tip. The tip of the tool makes the biggest difference though, the blade style tip I used for this one, although not sharp, would create small high spots in a repair like this so a softer tip is needed or adding tape to the sharper one. I chose this tool for the leverage and position to allow me to make light work of this small dent
@@LearnPDROnline Great, thanks for the explanation
@@adamcinematic9499 No problem
Easy! Paintless Dent Repair!
Easy when you know how :)
Thank you for sharing your expertise.
My pleasure, thanks for watching!
Great informative video Tom. Thanks for sharing your thought process to help us understand why we have so many different designs for our tools and how we should approach dent removal.
You're welcome Frank I'm glad it helps, there are loads of sizes and shapes to choose from so helps to narrow it down a bit, thanks for watching!
Excellent!!
Thanks Chris!
another good video thanks
Thanks Jason, glad you enjoyed it
've been enjoying your channel Tom. You do a great job at explaining the process. I received my first PDR kit (Glue pull tabs and a knock down tool) and have been practicing on my 2001 GMC Yukon. It's black so while the dents have pulled out fairly well, I'm left with micro highs and lows causing a ripple effect. And as you know, black shows everything. I think I need to invest in a few push bars as I'm not able to get those micro lows pulled out. Does that sound reasonable? Thanks for what you do here!
Hi Wyatt, yes at some point you will definitely need some bars and a few different tips if you are looking to achieve a high level repair, some dents can be fully repaired with glue alone but for me the majority are still worked from the inside with bars. I offer training so this may sound biased but in my opinion the best thing you can invest in is yourself. Learn the correct techniques from the beginning, following a set training plan then you'll know how to read the damage from start to finish and what tools are needed for each stage of the repair.
If I'm a newbie What kind of tool should I use or buy, can you give me some advice and where to buy it, thanks.
Which tool to buy as a newbie partly comes down to what you intend to practice on, for example we often start our training on a bonnet panel with open areas in which case something like a 28 inch double bend bar with a few different screw in tips is ideal, but if you were starting with a door panel then something like a 16 inch hockey stick style door bar would be best. Check out one of my earlier videos on tools to start with here - ua-cam.com/video/3I4Xv91CDWk/v-deo.html
Where can I buy these lineboards? Only find yellow versions on Amazon.
I use two line boards, my LED one is an Elimadent V3 and I added lines to the lens myself - elimadenttools.com/
I also have a 'Tight Lines' reflector board from www.pdrprotools.co.uk, you could also check out www.bletools.com to pick up a reflector board 👍🏻
I cannot see the highs and lows when it gets down to looking like texture in Orangepeel What can I do?
Two things can help see the fine damage clearer, One is good lighting either via an LED back lit board or spot lights directed onto your reflector and option two is to make sure your panel is clean and polished to a high shine as possible to help give a clear reflection
Hello 👍👍👍👍👍
Hi, Thanks for watching! 👍
hi~~~👍👍👍👍👍
Is this lamiated glass ~?
What kind of car is it ~?
The vehicle in this video is a Ford Focus and no, it does not have laminated glass. For working with laminated glass I would have a different approach as they can be very fragile along the edges 👍
@@LearnPDROnline The glass protection guard is up, so I was mistaken.
Thank you, sir ... ^^
@@user-st6gg5nz2r Always always use a glass protection board, even on safety glass this will allow you to leverage off the board and not the glass which will help avoid breakages and also help avoid scratching the glass with your tools!
This technique can be used on any car
Yes PDR tools and techniques can be used on nearly any car!
