REMOVING these CREASES with PDR!!! | Ford Puma LIMITED EDITION

แชร์
ฝัง
  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 19 พ.ค. 2024
  • This was a very complex dent on the front near side front wing of a Limited edition Ford Puma. The customer wants to restore this car, so wanted to keep the car original. So I saved this wing from having to be filled and painted, which will help to retain the original integrity of the vehicle, increasing the value of the car for years to come!

    This is a lost art in the States. Now they just bolt on a new fender and other plastic pieces and charge $5000. Many years ago, body men used bumping hammers and blocks. Like you, they analyzed the damage to remove the dent in reverse order from the impact progression. They were craftsmen, not parts changers. You sir, would qualify with the best of them. There is still hope for humanity. Thanks for this video.

      Yup, that's how I restored the rear quarter panel on my girlfriends 69 Javelin after someone crunched it back in the late 70's. I learned how to work metal using hammer and dolly from my Dad who worked the same in WWII on airplanes. He could create bubble out of flat sheet metal in no time.

      The funny thing is... rather than dislike, why not learn PDR and add it to what you know and can do... if there’s one thing a painter hates is poor bodywork and paint bcs we all know prep is90% of the finished product. I picked up PDR bcs I’m tired of correcting and fixing other ppls work just so I can get more paint work done at the end of the day. Why hate when you can improve yourself.

    He’s amazing. Repaired a dent on my AMG on a really tricky part of the wheel arch. It was fascinating watching him work. When he was finished it looked like new again. I said at the time he should teach others, he has a very special talent. It’s also my pride and joy, so I was so so thankful.

    Awesome job done by a true craftsman. ln 2006 I bought a new Silverado PU. I had it a week when a deer decided to T-bone my truck. He put a large dent in the rear driver's side door and very large dent in the bed quarter panel. I called my dealer and he sent a man out to fix it. I was amazed that he was able to push the dents out so fast. To do the door he drilled two holes in the door latch area for access to his tools (used rubber plugs to cap the holes) and for the quarter panel he removed the taillight. It took him about an hour start to finish and charged me way less than $200. There was no evidence that the truck was ever damaged. He called his company Painless Dent Repair. You guys are awesome.

      @Jinn Genie I had a dent on the back of my Corsa caused by an idiot schoolboy aiming a kick at it. He's still alive, just. I called a PDR firm and he turned up and said he didn't know if he could actually do it as it was such a complicated dent. Well, he not only got it out perfectly but the paint was undamaged. He said he wasn't completely happy with the repair but I couldn't fault it at all. That just shows the pride they have in their work. That Ford had paint damage from the creases which was understandable but with modern paint finishes they frequently resist damage from impact. If you've never seen a PDR expert at work, then you have no idea of their skills. The jobs I've them do first hand are outstanding.

    Great job and a great video! Excellently produced! I wish I was there with you to "help". I don't know much about auto body repair, o this was fascinating to me.

    Your vids are excellent. Matched only by your abilities!
    I watched a PDR guy work on a car once many years ago. It wasn’t a great repair but I was impressed with the possibilities.
    I have older vehicles and tried pdr just using stuff I had. The handle of a hammer, an old fire poker even a bloody screwdriver! I made them look better and my skills also improved.
    You are at another level, I have no desire to do it professionally but you have inspired me to up my game. I’ve ordered some tools and will go over some of those dents to see how much better I can get them!
    Thanks for all your efforts in making this more accessible to people like me.

      Thanks for your comment, I'm glad you have felt inspired to up your game! To be honest in the first few years of my PDR career I had all homemade tools and a wooden tap down and even then I still managed to get most of the dents out. Good luck and I wish you all the best! 😉

      1st Track Dents, thanks!
      I am not too far from you, Andover. If I get one on my nice car, I’d be happy to bring it to you!
      I trained as an Aircraft fitter (engines and airframe), then worked as a sheet metal worker making aircraft parts. Now I run a small electrical contracting company to keep the wolf from the door, but using the hand skills I’ve been given is the most rewarding. You have a new subscriber here!

      @@tinkertime7165 Great to have you onboard, I did some sheet metal training when getting into bodywork, although not on your level. I love engineering and metalworking so we could probably chat for hours! I may be in touch if I have some sheet metalworking queries for stuff i'm making as i'm trying to buy small bits of equipment here and there when my budget will allow, I would really love to get a lathe. 👍

      1st Track Dents. Yeah no problem. I bought a lathe just a few years ago. A Southbend 10”. Paid £400 for it with a milling attachment and taper attachment. Made in 1946! Still going strong. I think the Myfords (?) are popular but then probably demand higher prices. Not sure.
      Shrinker is a great asset I recently purchased, I am always keeping an eye out for a folder and small foot operated guillotine.
      I do love working with sheet.
      Last few years I’ve made a kinetic logsplitter and diesel sawbench (we heat on wood). There are some early vids I put on TH-cam. Search ‘Tinkertime’ if you fancy a gander. I have since made all manner of guards out of sheet. I should do an update video.

      @@tinkertime7165 Yes I think the old lathes go on forever if they have been looked after. I'll check your channel out, yes you should do an update video or some videos on tips and tricks on sheet metal working, I would certainly watch then as I find it fascinating 😁
