    Nice to see us old school guys still showing there are skills to learn instead of the throw away and buy new youngsters of today,

    Excellent vid. There are few of us file finishers left and they don't even teach lead wiping at tech school anymore. At around the 10 min mark is where I would use a dust coat of black as a guide when filing. Also I use a wooden file as I find the flexible file can flex just when you don't want it to and always hold the file with both hands to ensure the file is flat on the steel. People don't understand that the file is used to show highs and lows and and isn't for the actual smoothing of the steel.

    You're not a mechanic. You're an artist. Incredible.

    I wish more of this was done in US. So satisfying to watch such skillful work. I don't know what I envy most, the panel beating skills or that Rock and Roll hair ! Fantastic.

    So many guys say I'm going to keep this short or simple then proceed to make a 45 minute long video and still don't cover everything! LoL, you did a excellent job on the repair and explained it just perfectly! I have been doing body work for a long time but i still like watching others doit to compare techniques and to pickup on new tips that will help me become better at metal working. Just found your channel today actually and I'm glad I did! Thanks for sharing with all of us!!

    Just magic watching that dent melt away and disappear! Loving this channel and all the repairs and tips obviously in the hands of a master craftsman.

    Being an auto body repair man for 40 years now all I can say to you is thank you for helping to keep a lost art/skill alive. I have several slap files and spoons that new comers out of trade schools have never seen or have been taught to use. Keep up the great old school workmanship

    Superb video, very instructive without the usual 20 minute preamble you get from other garages that are on RUclips.

    I have just started a restoration on a TR6. As mechanic the body work costs have always deturred me from restoring a car . Thankyou for passing on your amazing skill set it has given me the confidence to attempt more of the body work.
