    Only 4 minutes in, but I think you definitely made the right choice. I’d definitely want to access the dent even if I started with a little glue pull first. A couple of aggressive or misplaced taps on the crown or around the body line and it won’t be as clean without a sharp tip picking at them.
    Basically to glue pull that dent and finish it, it would take too much time being so careful with every tap. Might as well at least find a way to slide something to it.

    • @1st_track_dents
      @1st_track_dents  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Totally agree, It was quite tight to push up so glue pulling would have really struggled. Glue can be great, but yes it can take so long to do. I've spent an hour before trying to pull a dent with glue making slow progress, only then to find out that I did have access behind after all, then I push it up in about 5 minutes!

I've watched a lot of PDR videos especially from your channel and it makes me want to buy myself a kit to give it a try. My car is a Subaru Forester 2017 and am very hesitant to do it.

    Hope you reply. Watch the first video I found of yours. You worked on several dented and types of debts on a passenger rear door of a silver car.
    My dent is similar to the smallest dent you fix on that door opposite the door handle on the front passenger door.
    I always drop my hood closed at a certain height. This time I pushed down on it creating a smooth oval like dent about 1.5 or so. Opposite of the center raised body line. Dent does not make contact with that line.
    So dent wizard will do the job. At same time may get them to work on extremely hard to see create on a passenger rear door hit by another door.
    I show the car, I am very particular. So I cover up certain areas of my car where mechanics etc may handle. I will remove interior panels and or other parts if easier then covering them up with tape etc.
    All this gives me peace of mind other things don't get damaged while work on other issues are getting done. Trust me it has paid off. Taking a car in to get a repair and it coming out with other scuffs, scraps, Mark's etc sucks. What I do usually makes there work easier also.
    So with this door very mild crease I know the SUPER EASY to mark up all hard plastic interior panel has to come off. Thus do i leave window up or down for dent wizard to work on that door.
    Because they won't have the interior panel. It will be safe at my home. Vehicle 2017-2020 Chevy Sonic hatchback.
    Ps: crease is about same location that smallest dent was on the silver car you worked on passenger rear door.

Even if they simply admitted that sometimes it just will not work out and filler and paint will need to be used.

    The repair bill is probably more costly than the car itself

    Do you do dents that have come from the inside out or pushed in from the front then buckled the fender outward with no paint damage.

    • @1st_track_dents
      @1st_track_dents  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes did one today in fact on a fender which had a huge buckle coming outwards in the middle caused by a slow moving collision at the front. You can check out this video of mine with a high spot coming outwards, this will show you my method of how I remove a high spot

      Thanks, Nik, it's from my local fishing tackle shop, I think it is a 62" diameter, so it does the job well come rain or shine!

    I imagine my story is rather common. New vehicle that gets its first minor dent. Someone mentions PDR as a less expensive method for a resolve so you search the subject. Before you know it your ordering basic PDR tools and excited to scratch that DIY itch. The dent in this videos is exactly what I have to work with other than different make / model of vehicle. Between PDR tools , body panel bought to practice on and hours attending the University of TH-cam ... I could have paid to have a professional perform the repair many times over for less out of pocket. I curse that DIY Virus that causes this behavior but thank goodness for videos like this to help the learning process. Your efforts are appreciated.... Any chance you will be making a "The fun of cleaning up DIY repair attempts performed by customers" ??

    When I go to get PDR in my locale in the States, they all say "Yeah, we'll try". I'm pretty sure they want just fast turnaround easy jobs instead of 'wasting' time on a thorough job with PDR, and that they get a cut from the body shops they recommend when they "tried but couldn't get the dent out with PDR, so sorry. Call _these_ guys, they can bang it out and match paint, they can turn it around in five days. Oh, we also rent cars incidentally".

    So which one was better? You didn't even tried with glue.

    • @1st_track_dents
      @1st_track_dents  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      As I mentioned in the video, glue wouldn't have really worked on this dent so that's why I didn't try and use it and from the force it took to push it up, glue pulling would never have been strong enough. 👍

    Now you need to do a video on how to pop off plastic trim without breaking the plastic tabs. Using gorilla strength doesn’t work all the time for me.

    Love your videos man, keep up the good work. I have a question I popped a dent out using the hot glue method, but I notice popping the dent out, it has left bubble bumps on surface & why does the dent easily goes back in like how it was, when I apply small pressure on it ?

    • @1st_track_dents
      @1st_track_dents  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi, this could be due to a few reasons, maybe there is still glue residue left on the panel or maybe it has had a poor paint job previously and the heat from the glue has damaged the poor paint finish. If the dent just pops back in then, either you need to release the crowns around it or the metal is stretched. 👍
