  • Paintless Dent Repair for beginners by a first time a DIY guy. It looks so easy when all the PDR pros do it on youtube, so I wanted to try it out on my car. What did I have to lose? Paintless dent repair is where you adjust the sheet metal on your car to be flat again. If there is a low spot pull it out. If there is a high spot, tap it down. When it's smooth again, you are done! You don't have to be an auto body pro to pop out a door ding. Don't be afraid to try this on your car, unless it's precious. For me, it's all about learning a new skill and having a little better car in the end. This was my daily driver and the dent bugged me. Not any more. I'm stoked that I did this pops a dent kit. I got a couple door dings and dents out since filming this. Take your time, you can get great results if you pay attention to what you are doing. This is a great way to repair hail damage too. The kit I got has glue tabs, a hot glue gun, glue sticks, a slide hammer, a rubber hammer, a t-handle puller, a bridge puller, and a dent lifter. I also suggest a heat gun to reuse the glue on the tabs since it just needs to get hot to melt again and is faster than the glue gun. I should have shared the final shot after it was cleaned and buffed out. Next time. Good luck on your project. #pdr #paintless #paintlessdentrepair

    Everybody is a critic....nice to see a guy do it himself and quit forking over his hard earned cash

  • @JamieBainbridge

    Good work dude. Amazing that one guy at home with a kit and patience can get a good 90+% of the way to a seamless professional repair.

    Not bad for the first time! Another 8 minutes and you're done 90%, 100% 👌

    The heat gun, or in your case hair dryer, is used to heat up the panel mostly to keep the paint from cracking. Not to heat up the pull tabs. And that 2 seconds of heat you applied to that tab did literally nothing. Don't heat the tabs. Heat the work area. Help make the metal a little easier to work but mostly it's for the paint.

    Jolly Good show! I am about to attempt my first DIY ding/dent repair and this gives me inspiration. Thank you!

    Fair play for giving it a go, it looks a lot better than it did for sure and ignore the criticism …. Where are their videos 🤷🏻

    Just pulled my first dent a couple of days ago, Much like your dent, mine is 90 percent better. I may try a little more at some future date but its worth the price of the kit for sure.

    Great job. I tried this the first time yesterday, no videos, just my mate, a track car and cheap Chinese kit. Had no idea about tapping down the edges. Its fun. Thanks for the video, helps loads. We are not looking for perfection but perfection is always good. Practice makes perfect.

    Not bad for your very first go at it. My first time was nerve racking. I have been practicing on my very old 96 Corolla. Glue wait time and tap down pressure has been a challenge. Great job, it's never as easy as it seems.

    Thanks for the confidence building video! I am going to try it! Will post if I was as successful as you!

    Always heat the area before tapping on it like that to prevent the paint from cracking as well as making the metal a tad bit more workable.

    Good try for a first go but that's how you learn. Reach out to the positive comments.

    You can make so much money doing this, I’m a panel beater and I watched a guy doing it, it took him seconds to get it out his really good at it but his been doing it years. I bought the tools just practicing now then I go on the course but honestly you can make stupid amounts of money doing it anyone that’s in the motor trade I suggest you give it ago or anyone that’s interested in doing it.

    Thanks for the close-up shot, it gives me idea of how those high point hammering works. I have been always curious on whether if the tabbing will leave some marks. Also it'd be even better if you had a before and after show from a distance, for comparison of the results. And thanks again, I am definitely trying it on my son's car now.

    I just finished this DIY project on my lexus nx200t myself. Not sure if it worth the time and effort. I will continue on it tomorrow 😆
