Mostly from what I see from your video, when the puller tool breaks from the dent surface, the adhesive fails mostly from the puller tool surface, resulting in leaving the adhesive on the dent. As a surface scientist, I would suggest firstly you need all surfaces to be clean and free of grease. As the failure is more often on the puller surface I would recommend that you clean its surface with alcohol or even better to roughen it with 240 wet and dry emery grit paper, then wash it with water and finally an alcohol rinse and dry with a tissue dab. That should enhance the adhesion on the puller material. Also with any adhesive bonding, the glue thickness needs to be as thin as possible. When it becomes too thick you will then get adhesive failure, which generally is weaker as it fractures through the glue rather than one of the other 2 surfaces. ie the puller surface or the paint surface. So my advice to you is when the adhesive has been applied to the puller, press it hard onto the dent to encourage a thinner glue line.
Thanks for the tips! This is a old video… but if I ever have to do this again I’ll consider your tips!
There is points I agree on, but why remove the parts that there is good adhesion, and drill a hole or two in the pulling connector for the hot glue to mushroom thru. Viewed a couple of other attempts from various sources. All of them do the same thing. As is here persistence paid off.
Do you have any link to point someone drill holes on the puller tip?
@LambertFick of course mushroom method that way increasing the resistance, u legend!
His first mistake was putting the dent remover in the center of the dent You want to work your way outside inward never start in the center.and just remember it will be a rinse and repeat cycle until dent is gone
Great advice thanks
This was painful to watch him do the same thing over and over again.
Take to a professional?! They want an arm and a leg and to empty your pocket to do the job! No way, no chance! DIY or get a friend or his friend who knows the skills! This video was CLEAR to follow!! 💡✅✅💡
Yes. I have a single little dent on my hood, the body ship asks for $1500 😢
Thanks for the info. The kit I got had no instructions whatsoever, this helped a lot. 👍🏾
Glad it helped, Thanks for watching!
We lived through the process with you, willing it to work, because you did keep trying one more time! I have suggested to my husband that he return the kit he bought from Aldi, although it was a bargain 🙂. Thank you for sharing this
I kept doing it for another hour after the video 🤣 eventually it did look a bit better but far from perfect
heck yeah! I like it when my favorite RUclipsrs trying a new format. Legit nice car, man!
AJ Dude good yeah ! Not sure about the blue though hahahaha
I have exactly the same kit & if you read & watch the instructions first the results are amazing
We own a fiat Panda & a Landrover Discovery both had been subjected to collisions with Super Market Trollies and all 6 were pulled out successfully the only thing I did that they didn’t show was to warm the panels with a hair dryer I just thought correctly that a warmer panel would pull better & it did
I was very happy with the results & for £9:99p it was well worth the money just remember to read the instructions & watch the video & use plenty of glue! I hope this helps & saves you money
Thanks for sharing with everyone!
Thanks for the hairdryer tip 👍
Thanks so much for your vid . I’m an older Aussie lady and I bought this kit off our Aussie Amazon . It came today without any instructions. A little bit annoyed that it looks like it’s going to take a lot of effort to get any results. 😕But I thank you for your honest review 🙏and I’ll give it a go when I have time 👍
Hey, it was the first time I used it as well. After all it did what it was supposed to do. Good luck!
I would recommend getting a Heat Gun or a Hair dryer and heat up each of the dens before you pull the dents. Metal has a memory once the metal heats up it will help with the dent removal.
Great suggestion!
If you heat the dent the glue will become soft.
Good video I've just brought similar kit .I've watched lots of videos with guys who do this for a living and is a long process to get really good results. Given that they are using professional tools.
Eventually (3 more hours after this video) I think I did a decent enough job with it. Not perfect, but I was happy enough with the results. Thanks for checking out the video
If you let the tool do the job, by slowly using pressure and not just going at it until is pops off; you'd have better results.
It was helpful to get me started... Better than the instructions manual. The comments are useful too.
Many really useful comments for sure!
Paintless dent removal, from the inside, might have got both perfect (aside from the scratch). Interesting vid.
Good tips! Well explained! Bravo he finally got it!! 😅🙂😊😊
Thanks for watching! I think it turned out pretty decent for doing it the first time :)
I like tapping them out then sanding, filler and paint..of course depends on the size , small bullesye dents are best done like this..I think the slide hammer version is better. I've broke a few of these as they cant stand the strain of pulling to hard on a dent..Pro paintless removal isn't that expensive and they use tools that go behind the panels and do a very good job
I would apply the glue on the front of the pad a run it around to the back of the pad, also you cleaned the car panel but not the pad, this could be why the glue sticks to the car better than the pad.
I minute is not enough ..mine says 8 minutes to cure .. then try
Interesting video. Having a blast in the week 🙌. Thank you!
Thanks for checking it out 😀
Patience makes it perfect! Great video.
After the video I kept doing that over and over for another hour or so...it turned out okay. Not perfect...but better than it was :) Thanks for watching
Good luck with the way you are performed.
OK - I know this is old but I tried today and accidently left the glue gun on for about 25 mins unattended, and it was ULTRA HOT. the glue was BUBBLING! So I instantly applied it on the piece that has a screw end - and waited 10 mins for it to dry. It immediately oozed all around the part as it was soooo hot. Mate once it dried it was almost impossible to get it off! It pulled the dent out nicely, and I'm super happy. So I think you want to see the glue BUBBLING, crazy hot when it goes onto the bit - then quickly attach to the car. MEGA HOT. I'm using it on a decent dent on a F150 and up until now I had terrible results. Happy camper now
maybe that was my mistake, not waiting long enough
@@RedskullPronot bubbling but smoking......also if u put grease on dent by touching it, it needs cleaning again
I like this different type of video, gadgets are fun too and useful. I look forward to touch up paint review, hopefully more successful. This dent remover was "ok" over all for what you paid for it.
I think the key to removing these dents is - as you said - patience mate. I've seen the professional car PDR videos doing similar repairs and they say it takes up to 9-hours depending on the severity of the damage, and they use proper tools for the job.
I kept working on for a couple more days after the video and I think it turned out pretty decent; far from perfect but I was happy with the result overall
@@RedskullPro Nice one. I'm working on a rear crumpled wheel arch and I think I'm making it worse not better.
@@as680783 buy a minimum 50 piece kit
I watched a video that used a heat gun first to make the metal more plyable ?
Used the same kit today, 1 heat up dent then apply the glue 2 i let it sit for 10 minutes , it wasn't perfect but most of the dent was gone,
Fuel and space efficient new ride! Njoy!
The problem propably is you need ro heat with hairdryer or something the surface. I was told at the shop i bought the kit so.
Possible… many ways of doing this
I've seen them use similar techniques on car shows like "wheeler dealers", so I think the principle is sound. This kit doesn't seem entirely effective though. Anyway good review.
Attempt 45, 48,78,90...
Sir you have patience. I would have kicked that tool on the third attempt.😆
haha...yeah...and the following day I did the same thing again :) took a while
some times running hot boiling water straight from the kettle over the dent can make the dent pop out, may be worth a try.
..... That's plastic, (Like the bumper).
Very interesting! They reckon it can take at least 10 attempts to fix dent! This dents were at the crease where the metal is folded at the seam! Very hard to fix without the pros? But for an average DIYer this is great 👍
I kept doing it for another hour after the video and eventually it turned out a bit better
@@RedskullPro DIY PDR repair, I had never seen this, I love it.....
Love how at 7:20 you were just like okay, ALL THE GLUE
Top dent needs a PDR push creasing tool.
What is a PDR push creasing tool? I could find what it is on Google.
Also what is a top dent?
From Amazon kit or where to buy the kit!?????
Amazon… there was a link in the video’s description… but i doubt it still works
Yeah, that worked surprisingly well I'd say.
WARNING IF USING THE HEAT GUN
If you plan on using the hot glue gun, be careful. Yesterday I worked with it plugged into the normal 230V home electric socket for less than an hour and it casually EXPLODED in my hand. Luckily I didn't get burned (I just had a black stain on my hand were the end of the gun was), but when the cable exploded, it got ripped off the case while the other end was still plugged into the electric socket, so I was milimeters away from being electrocuted. I can't reach the manufacturer, so you will probably see me under various videos warning others. Stay safe
damn...thanks for sharing
Was it rated for 230 v? It sounds like your in Europe or some crap
I'm more than sure that the glue gun was for 120 outlet use and not an increased 230 outlet where you may reside where the 230 is standard there but glad you're alright from that.
Nice attempt! It does look better.
I bought one and tried this shit on my skull, it worked real nice 👍🏿
You have a flat skull now? :D
First of all, you had to heat up the area first, Second this kind of machine and glue is just good for a little dent with no angle and has to be in the middle because in the middle metal is more flexible.
I was hoping it will work better than it shows. I need to fix a dent on my car door as well. But looks like its a iffy proposition.
I don't know I kinda find this funny 😂😂😂
Should clean the panel 1st with panel wipe to degrease and then heat the panel slightly to make it more malleable
You aren't wrong! We live and learn :)
How are you gonna fix the scratches?
They are a bit too deep to fix at home..
How would you fix them if they were less deep?
They look good enough for bondo.
You use this is combination with pdr rods from the inside
Let it cure a bit longer
Let what cure a bit longer ? what does that mean exactly
The glue
@@addictedjr3553 what does it mean to let it “cure”
He meant let the glue cure as in what it's suppose to do become hard. Then try it... him putting on for a minute might need more time to harden/ cure. Let the chemical dry, cure...
@@addictedjr3553 thanks for explaining i appreciate it im soon hopefully going to be a dent removing expert
Been here from 30,000 subscribers ❤️
Been here since before 10k... I just find Alex's enthusiasm hypnotic.... "What's up everybody, my name is Alex..... " and so on...
Great review keep it up as always
Should of tried it “one more time” 😂
I kept doing that for another hour after the video 😂
I think this man speak polish he have the sexy polish acent i think
Glue comes off before the dents out for me
Should melt the glue stick and stick it on the dent and pull the glue stick
I didn’t try that
I wonder if heating the surface with a blow dryer would have helped soften the metal a little making it easier to pull the dent out. On the other hand, maybe the hot surface would prevent the glue from curing.
Possible, but I didn't try it... anyway, overall I was pretty happy with the results. After I covered that scratch with paint and buffed out that area it looks pretty decent.
Sorry bro today third
Great job man
you have to clean the glue with alcohol read the instructions
One minute is not enough
Possibly
A lot of work, but it might eventually does the work
I think when you use these you must turn so very very slow so that you pull metal without breaking the bond
First time I tried something like that 😃 eventually… after many hours it turned out pretty decent
Find it sticks okay to the car but not the tab
I heard you need to soak tabs in alcohol for a few hours to clean them.
video starts from 07:00
You definitely need patience with this
Use alcohol to remove the glue.
Of course Dracula 🧛🏻 ownes a fiat
1 a denta,2 a denta,3 a denta hahahahhh😂
this was a better video if you finish the job....
Is your last name La Goasa?
No
You let the glue cool too much. Get it on Quickly!
A minute is not enough to wait. It needs to get cold.
Eventually it worked :) after doing that for like 3 days after the video :)
You must have nerves made out of steel.
You didn’t tell us if the glue comes with it or not ?? You showed us the pipe but not the glue !!!
yes, there are glue sticks that come in the box
Y do you talk like a vampire 🧛🏻 so did the kit worth buying
You need too heat the area with a heat gun
Good tip
Its better but still there
yeah...
Made me cringe when you're applying the glue without gloves. I'm not one to critique because there have been many times I've foregone basic PPE, but I've paid the price! Heated glue can reach 200 degrees celcius... and it sticks...
I guess we learn 😀
hahaha if this is "slowly" I can't imagine what "fast" would be....
🤣
Weird my kit came with 10 glue sticks
strange...or maybe I didn't count right...
I’m gonna be totally honest. I bought the product. It sucks.
Take your time and it will eventually make a difference
I had no problem with the tool!
Product reviews are less then flattering
So it doesnt really work tbh.
It works… but after a bit of practice :)
So basically, that device sucks
It will depend a lot on the dent...some are easier to fix than others. I think it did pretty decent for the $40 that i paid for it
These are totally rubbish - the glue is never strong enough
ты русский что ли?
No
You have to use a hair dryer or, preferably, a hot air gun on section of body where you'll be pulling. The difference is night and day.
I wish I would have known back than 😀 there have been a few comments saying that
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
All "Dings" on the rear of the car......... Am I going to drop myself in the "Poo" by querying if this is a "Womans" car???
🤣🤣🤣
First
That Dent Puller is rubbish to use its like a little toy no good
Better than not doing anything to a dent 🤷♂️ also much cheaper than taking the car to a shop to fix that
@@RedskullProit works fine, it takes time! Well done!
In fact,fixing a dent requires patience and time. Everyone trying to fix dents on their car must bear this in mind. Thanks.
It sure does!
Valid point! even it takes the pros a lot of time with their pro tools!
I would let the glue dry at least 5 min
Depends on the weather too!
