@@Fulloctanegarage (Little late to this party I guess...) -- I got this same puller today and have been having the same problem - that puller head is pure garbage. But, twisting it was my final go-to as well, at least once the stud breaks off, you can blast the end of the stud with your hammer, or the floor, or whatever you have nearby, and break it loose that way without pushing the same dent in and out all day long. -- My eyes got pretty big at the beginning when you mentioned "five or ten seconds" -- on mine, I've been finding that applying for 2.25 seconds, it'll burn through and take part of the panel out on your first pull.... and at 2.24 seconds, the stud will fall off the panel as soon as you pull the gun away. Frustrating, but it'll make some level of progress, I hope...
He already answered the 10 questions of pushing the hammer back in lol. Is there a different slide hammer you can get that works with that stud welder? Thanks
The problem I've had is getting it to release the stud. They say tap it back forward, but that just pushes the dent back in as it did in this video, and it still doesn't release some times. Welder is fine.
I got a dent on my VW polo I have been told is to much to pull out with glue and plastic tabs, would a stud welder be the next best approach for me please, my dent is much worse than the 1 on this video, I would appreciate any tips and advice. Thankyou everyone, Great video thankyou.
I tossed that stupid attachment after finding that it won’t even grip the 2mm studs. I went to the hardware store and got a m14 nut and welded it to a pair of small vice grips. Works wonders no :)
I fixed my slide hammer by welding on a small pair of needle nose vise grips, works perfectly now & adjusts easily for either size stud...🖖🏿😎👍🏿
I had trouble with the cam wheel too. Looks great
You need to tighten the head up on the cheap dent puller and twist it to release the pin. Pounding it back in is useless.
Thanks, the quality of the dent pull would be my only complaint about the system.
I tried that and it just broke the studs off in the puller. The puller is crap.

Just bought one of these in the uk. Yet to use it so thanks for the pointers.
Twist it!! All you’re doing is pulling and then pushing the dent back in
I tried that and i broke studs off, honestly I think the puller is defective.
Oh it probably is buddy. Mine works awesome
Awesome job, awesome video!
Everytime I use it i cout to 2 and let off the trigger
6:14 The trick is do it exactly as how you did it on the second nail.
Have the same issue with my slide on a different brand. Very annoying, I found light pulls vs. large pulls helped but horribly annoying for sure.
Great video 👍🏾
Does this just plug into the mains power? Or fo you need to use with a welding unit? Thanks for any info
Plugs in
Plugs into normal outlet, nothing special.
@@De2Angel1o thanks
@@Fulloctanegarage thanks
Best review by far. Thank you very much 👍
Glad you enjoyed it!

Why did you push the dent back in with the hammer, makes no sense, you r suppose to pull out only.
Because the hammer is crap and would not disengage the stud
The side of my gun says duty cycle every 8 min. Same gun
Awesome review! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
I was wondering if I could use this to pin and weld muzzle brake on my ar-15 barrel
There is a cool down time between pins applied if you read things first .
Try rotating the tool head to loosen it if you dont want to push the dent back in .
@@bogiewheelman71 tried it and it just broke off pins in the puller, my puller is crap
5 or 10 seconds no no no 1to 2 seconds maximum
It is a feel for sure, if you watch in the video it is no where near 5 or 10.
The manual saying 3 second max. Then wait for 30sec for cooling.
0.5 sec is normal.
Is 120amps or 240amps?
120 volt.
Can you get these in the uk ? Thanks
Yes ebay and amazon sell stud welders
What tool are you using to strip the paint off?
Thats just a compressed air orbital sander. Any grinder will do
god that looks overkill
