This large dent over the wheel arch was a real eyesore for the customer and he didn’t want to take it to the bodyshop even though I had advised him to because of the cracked paint. however, the customer was not too fussed about the damaged paint as he was not too precious of this car and because a PDR repair would still be massively cheaper than a bodyshop respray, he was happy to just touch in the broken paint himself afterwards.

I know what you are thinking, “why bother… It needs respraying, the paint is damaged!!!” However, the customer just wanted me to remove the dent for him as he wasn’t too bothered about the cracked paint. He was happy to just touch that in himself afterwards.
Too bad I can’t get these tools shipped to US like your rubber tips
@@callmelewis7462 You don't need to get them shipped to the US, nearly all of the PDR tools are manufactured in the US. look up www.pdrtool.com/ they will be able to help 👍
Nice repair Jake, the option to save the panel definitely allows for a paint option down the track and keeps better value in the vehicle well worth it in my opinion 👍
Hey Bill, I hope you're well. Yes I totally agree. My only concern was more paint falling off during the repair! In fact a tiny bit did on one of the top cracks but luckily it wasn't too bad. All the best, Jake
This is a great video. I’m looking to do this on my 2020 Ford Focus. Do you know if the wheel arch liner is the same on that model by any chance?
Concerteza seus vídeos são os mais didáticos que conheço no TH-cam, não falo não só na área de pdr , dentro do universo automotivo. Parabéns! Mais um belo trabalho e uma aula!
You are a magician! I would rather do PDR than have my car butchered and bondo’d. I think most body repairs should start with PDR.
Yes, it's a much better alternative to filler/bondo, lots of PDR tech's go into bodyshops and do 'Push to Paint' repairs which helps reduce the time on their repairs and keeps them much cleaner. 👍
Every video you upload is worth the wait, your PDR skills are Superb & the same goes for your filming skills👍
Great work Bro, Stay Safe👍
Thanks Salman, really appreciate you watching them 👍👍👍
CONGRATS ON OVER 100k subscribers!!
That’s impressive and deserved. 👍👍👍
Absolutely brilliant, I can't believe how you did that.
It's about time you showed up...lol..excellent repair I've learned a lot from you and i have successfully repaired my own vehicles and a few others most I've done for free just to get the practice..thanks again for your videos..see you on the next one Cheers 🥂🥂🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thanks Rodney, that's great to hear, thanks for your continued support! 👍👍👍
Fantastic as always Jake👏👏
Glad you enjoyed it!
Top work, as always.
Was pleased to watch it once more.
Greets
Thanks Steven! 😉
Another great Video. It’s funny how many times I look at a car that has similar damage/dents and say to myself, “Just at least get a PDR guy to get 98% of that fixed!” So worth it! Nice work!
Thanks, yes I think most bodyshops should be using some form of PDR to speed up their workflow and save on consumables. 👍
Buena Jake|
como siempre!!!
me encanta ver tus reparaciones!!!
A ver si tenemos suerte y te sale alguna reparación que no sea de aletas delanteras y nos haces un bonito video. Puerta, techo, capo, aleta trasera,...
Un saludo y fuerza!!!😉
Gracias, sí, he estado recibiendo muchas alas delanteras últimamente. Estoy tratando de filmar otros trabajos, pero es difícil hacerlo cuando estoy de viaje, ya que no todos los lugares son fáciles de filmar. Gracias por tu apoyo 👍
Another great job Jake. 👍
Thanks Rod 👍
Hei Jake. This one was blasted a lot! Great job like always!
Thanks Zan! I hope you are keeping well and busy. All I seem to be doing lately are smashed up front wings/fenders! Have a great weekend 👍

Hola desde Argentina . Muy buen video. Siga así maestro
Saludos
Hola, tengo más videos en camino, espero que los disfruten. 👍
@@1st_track_dents ayer estuve practicando un rato con un Capot ( para practicar ..) y me falta mucho..😭😭😭.Todavía no logro No dejar marcas. Cuando quito los bollos, luego bajo con el punzón las áreas elevadas ..pero siempre me queda algún punto de las palancas q no puedo hacer desaparecer.
Igual practique un par de veces y hacia 2 semanas q no tocaba las herramientas .
Al ver tus vídeos parece tan fácil...
Sos un gran estímulo.
No pares!
Excellent result Jake👍shame about Fords paint flexibility though!
Yes, Ford paintwork was always brittle many years ago when I first started out but got much better, so don't know why this cracked so bad, must have been a freezing cold day when the impact happened? Hope you are well 👍
It’s such a shame the paint was already gone given how much disappeared of the dent with that first push up. As ever brilliant work and explanation 👍👍
Yes, it would have been perfect if the paint hadn't cracked, it's unusual to see a crack like that on an original paint finish too. 👍
Amazing
Thank You 😉
Amazing as always. How much did you charge the customer?
nice work.
Thanks Jonathan! 👍👍👍
how much did this cost? i have a very similar dent on the rear arch after a rough idea of costs thank you
This video was well done. I was well engaged! I had a hit & run with false insurance, so i have to fix it myself.
Hi Jake, Your videos are so well done and amazing work as usual! What software do you use for editing and adding graphics? Did you learn how to edit like this on skillshare?
Thanks Kevin, I use the whole Adobe suite of products. All of these are made using Premiere Pro, After Effects, Illustrator & Photoshop. I've been using Adobe products for years as I studied product design at Uni back in 2003 and had to use some of these programs but we were never taught how to use them, I have self taught myself. Yes there are lots of videos on Skillshare on how to use these programs. People generally don't want to pay for editing software so opt for the free ones but if you want them to look professional, the paid ones are far superior! Final Cut pro and Davici Resolve are also very popular programs for this type of editing too. 👍
Thank you for the info sir! All of your videos have top notch production. They look like something you would see on the Discovery channel@@1st_track_dents
@@superkev2000 Thanks Kevin, they have slowly got better over time. I can't watch my early videos though as it makes me cringe 😬
เยี่ยมครับ😀✌👍👍
👍
Great video, but could not believe it took over 2 hours to repair a small dent.
Nice!
Cheers 👍
Great job as always. Where to get that stand for light ?
Thanks, it's just an old photography lighting stand that I had kicking, it's not a piece of PDR equipment. 👍
Very good
Long live
Thanks 👍👍
Can you tell me what light set up you use? What is the stand you use for the light? It looks portable .thanks
This is just an old video light stand which I was going to throw out, the light I use is not very heavy so it works fine. For a bigger heavier light you would really need a proper PDR stand. 👍
@@1st_track_dents yes, but they are expensive . I like the idea of portability with your set up . I want to get away from the suction cup set up usually falls off the car. Thanks
He's the master PDF practitioner!
Thanks 👍
What brand/make tools are you using. I really want to learn this new skill, but not looking to drop HUGE coin right off the bat. What do you recommend for STARTER/Learning? THNAKS and keep up the GREAT videos
The 24 inch double bend tool I use all the time from Ultra is here, this is a great all rounder bar which I use all the time:

You just need a basic nylon tap down and a PDR light and that is all you really need to start 👍
Hi there. Is it possible to glue pull an aluminium panel. If so how?
Hi Jonathan, if you mean an Aluminium painted car body panel, then I would just treat it the same as a mild steel panel but maybe just keep playing around with the different heat settings of the panel and drying time and eventually you will get the right pull. Glue pulling can be too complicated to go into on here as there are so many variables and types of glue. There are many glue pulling tutorials on TH-cam that might be able to help you. Good luck 👍
thanks good tutorials i well make to much money
Super
Thanks Tomasz 👍
Fantástico
Thanks 😉
great
Do you do teaching?I want to do this job.If you know any courses?
I don't do teaching sorry. Where are you located in the world?
would you be willing to go over what you carry in you vehicle to do this? im a new tech and you make it look effortless, with just a few tools and im going through so many before I find one I like for that situation plus im having trouble setting up my vehicle. thank you for the help
Hi Jonathan, sorry, your comment got held for review for some strange reason so never saw it. For those type of videos I would suggest maybe looking at some of the USA tech's as they have lots more interesting tools, I only use a handful of tools, I badly need to invest in new stuff. Real World PDR Training does some great videos on start tools or if you are in the UK maybe you could chat to Kevin over at TDN PDR now Keco UK I'm sure he could help you out with tools. All the best, Jake 👍👍
@@1st_track_dents Im in the States, im just impressed with what you do and was wondering what you carry in your car, you never see techs here with car jack to lift a car they just seem to struggle through the job. I know Real World PDR, I talk to Jim from there. im a newer tech and im always looking to learn, and if I can do the trade with less tools then great
Hi Jonathan, the answer is that I don't carry that much. Yes, Jim is a really nice guy and an amazing PDR tech! I love his content and I've chatted to him briefly over some TH-cam comments and he is really down to earth and has always been kind enough to comment on my videos. We differ slightly because I think he has an addiction to buying tools lol! which is great as USA techs can earn amazing money from PDR, far more than a UK tech could ever earn, I think the motor trade is just far more respected there. You also have all the best tool companies over there in the USA too, so can probably get your hands on most tools. Whereas with me, for various reasons I don't really get to invest in tools that often so I have to choose wisely what I buy or make my own. Also being a mobile tech I don't have lots of space for lots of tools in my car, so over the years I have narrowed down all my tools to what I can actually can get away with, which is about 10 or so tools that I can pretty much do everything with. If I had a workshop like Jim, working in the USA, I too would probably fill the walls up with tons of bars as it's always great to have lots of choice when repairing dents. I just have to be a bit more creative with what I have. But yes an Aluminium Trolley jack is an essential piece of kit and it gets used daily so definitely get one! All the best, Jake 👍
@@1st_track_dents our pay didn't really increase until about 2016 when all the techs started listening to pdr college podcast and I would say by 2019 pay dramatically went up for retail
@@jonathanrighetti5897 Yes, I guess if all the tech's can come together to set the prices that could have a great impact on getting what you deserve. I know a lot of tech's here are starting to use mobileTech RX for their pricing but unless everyone is using it, another tech will just come along and undercut you. A lot of customers here are driven by the cost as they are only leasing cars, so have no personal attachment to it. The customers who have the nice cars here though are prepared to pay the right price as they know that they will get a good job. Hopefully over here in time we will get the right money for what we do and deserve but by then I will have retired 😂
What type pdr lihgt you using? Name pls
Hi, this is a homemade light, the most popular lights are from Stuckey and Elimident which you can find on most PDR tool websites, although there are many other makes available. 👍
Hi Jake! How did you make the light? What do you think made in china lights?
So jealous. I want to learn this so bad. Very expensive to invest.
Thanks, It's not as expensive as you think to start. A lot of people think you have to buy a huge kit of tools when you only really need 1 or 2 bars to begin with. 👍
Would you recommend any of the pdr kits on Amazon?
If you are serious about PDR, I would buy a kit from a reputable PDR company, my first kit came from www.pdrtool.com, they have some great starter kits
@@1st_track_dents thanks! I’m very much the kind of guy that doesn’t want to waste my time or money. I do a lot of body work on my own vehicles but I’d love to learn how to do this. Been watching a lot of your videos lately to prep for this Mazda my girl just bought that was rear ended. Might actually be looking to start my own little dent repair deal. I like doing body work but it’s too messy and hazardous. Love the idea of making things look like new again without a big mess.
@@TheForerunner117 Yes I started out as a panel beater years ago so I know how messy that can be, I've had metal fragments in my eye, welding spatter go in my ear and probably breathed in lots of bad dust and fumes over the years, so yes PDR is much cleaner and safer and very satisfying! I wish you lots of luck on the Mazda!
@@1st_track_dents oh you know it. Slag in the ear has to be the scariest thing I’ve ever heard of lol… I think a few more of your videos and I’ll be good enough to get her to your final step for the fine tuning, I think that’s when I’m going to need to exercise patience. I make a lot of things, (knives, wood working stuff, leather goods etc) so I saw that video where you used that guy’s leather coated hammer deal and I think I’d make myself one of those. Looks like it’s really satisfying to use. Might even consider turning some of my own tap downs. I tend to collect skills and hobbies and try to come up with new tools and stuff to make it easier for me to learn/perfect. Seriously looking forward to pushing some of these dents 👌🏻
@@TheForerunner117 Yes, there is a lot of satisfaction in making and using your own tools, sounds like you have all the skills. I'm very much into 3D printing some of my own tools at the moment but want to up my machining skills to lathe and CNC work. All the best with the future, be good to see some of your own homemade tools sometime 👍
Do you sand after every PDR repair?
No, most of the time on the average dents no sanding is required, but I still polish the panel to clean it up and remove any marks. I only wet sand if the dent has damaged the orange peel texture of the paintwork, however you have to be very careful only to sand it a little as you can end up with a flat spot that will really show up. 👍
What's the rubber tools called so I can buy ?
Not sure what rubber tool you were referring to, maybe it was one of the tips that comes with this set? www.ultradenttools.com/products/a44-7-16-6-pc-tip-set-and-tip-holder?_pos=1&_sid=5430179c2&_ss=r
Hi there really enjoying your channel. Could you advise on a decent Pdr professional in the north west. Preston Lancashire please ?
Thanks Dave, I can highly recommend Ben from Trident PDR: tridentpdrltd.com/ he is in Sheffield or there is Martin from Dent-Remover, a bit further over in Hull - dent-remover.co.uk/ Both are amazing tech's, I don't know of anyone closer to you, but it would be worth the travel to either of these guys...Good Luck 👍
Hi Dave after speaking to Martin from dent remover, he tells me that Graham from Dent Detail PDR is local to you, he is also a very good tech and I have seen some of his work online too and he really knows his stuff: dentdetailpdr.com/
Hope this helps. 👍
Love your videos.
I think the before-and-after effects would be more dramatic and easier on the eye if you didn't spin the image.
Thanks, yes I am doing more Shorts videos now and I have now stopped the spinning reveal 😵
Too bad I can’t get these tools shipped to the US
Most of these tools are made in the USA, so you will be able to get you hands on these tools easily with only local shipping needed. Or look up Mobile Tech Expo, these are shows in the USA where you can try out and see all the latest PDR tools in the industry. 👍
👍👏

Won't work on my golf as the metal is too tough to push back.
Hello, without prolonging words and praise, I want to be your student
Nice Skill . in Germany they make all New 😄🤢🤢😭😭.they das Cost more as a New one so let Change the Fender .. nice
Thanks, I'm sure there will be some good PDR tech's in your country. Germany has some of the best brains in engineering and technology as I worked for BMW for 17 years. 👍👍
As you can see I am taking great care to tap down the highs... Actually no, I couldn't. You have plenty of ads but are skipping the detail we need to see.
Hi Steve, sorry about that, but you have to remember that these videos are just examples of my work they are not lessons. Have you seen how expensive PDR courses are? I give all of this information for free. The ad revenue I receive from the ads is very little and only barely covers the cost of the monthly Adobe subscription for the editing software and for the music licensing etc. It takes me many days and nights to edit these videos when I could be doing many more PDR jobs, earning better money. If you are interested in learning PDR then maybe look at some of the monthly paid subscription platforms, they should give you all the information you need without any ads but you will have to pay monthly for the information. Thank you for the feedback, I hope that helps 👍
Broken paint ? nothing a good sticker can't fix
