Thank you for this - I have an old car project I am working, and after 10 minutes of watching you I am fully convinced I need to hire a professional to fix my squished up fender
This is the funniest shit I’ve ever read 🤣
I was about to go try to do it myself, I'll just go straight to the professionals instead 😂
🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😭
Lmao
Wow. Very impressed. Every time I try to PDR on my daughters' cars when they ding them up, I can't come close to this kind of result. Appreciate your skill level...and it really is an art form. Great video!
I appreciate the craft and mental strategy involved in PDR. I need to find a specialist in this for my Miata fender. I got a $4,300+ estimate from a body shop that essentially involved them replacing the whole panel and stuff I didn’t ask for. I could do that myself, but I want to fix the original metal.
Jim, you are the man. Real World PDR is worth every penny, twice over. Coming from the body shop world, I really like the methods you teach and it’s explained in a way that actually makes sense. FAVORITE VIDEO: is the pep talk in regards to handling and dealing with failures. You rock man! Going to be reaching out for some advanced training soon.
Freaking out results: doesn’t help.... and make sure when you throw that tool it can’t bounce and cause a dent in your own truck.
Hahahaha I love the end there!!! Are you speaking from experience in the truck dent?
@@RealWorldPDRTraining it was instant karma!! Wasn't as bad as shutting a door and forgetting you had a rod inside...
This is an awesome lesson. Close to the fender smash you gave me in training. Love that stanliner fender tool. That’s all I used.
Sure is similar! We made it through that without too much drama! That tool is magical.
People in these comments thinking they’re ready to tackle this is funny. I don’t think y’all understand the time, patience and skills required to execute a repair like this
Hey man, I’m done arguing with them lol. Every time I tell someone this isn’t a DIY skill, or this particular job is so far away from DIY it’s ridiculous, I get a lot of attitude from strangers…
So I say meh… if they can’t take good advice they can mess up their own cars.
@@RealWorldPDRTraining ahaha I don’t blame you, it’d be a full time job replying to all these muppets 😂 fantastic work man, watching masters of this art, like yourself, is so satisfying to me. I’m in the Autobody trade as a combo tech, you’d cry if you saw me using my bars for push to paint 🤣
I love looking at these videos because it really stepped up my repair game at the body shop. I can usually get my panels looking like yours did at 9:10. Then I go ahead and sand the panel and use filler to finish the job. Honestly it takes all of the guess work out of repairs and the final product looks excellent 👌
Unbelievable... what a craftsmanship! 😯
I really appreciated this. I have a project I am working on and I needed this.
I have to attempt this later today in my driveway after "somebody" clipped a deer on her way to work this morning. I have pretty much none of these tools so it should be interesting trying to do this with suction cup pullers, blocks of wood, and tree branches.
I'll reply within the week with the results if it works, or if it winds up being as stupid as it sounds. I figure it's worth a try since it's only stupid till it works.
As an update, since I promised one, it wound up being more than just a dent (parts inside the engine compartment like the windshield wash bottle wound up busted) so it's off getting poked and prodded by insurance adjusters. Hurray...
I did the same thing this past week… a deer hit smack right in the middle of my driver side fender. I hope I can just get it out enough to open my driver’s door. 😅 and of course it happened right before I am due for a state inspection…
Good job mate. I was getting a little worried when your blow torch was heating up your tyre.
i habe this same exact dent on the same exact car that i own, thank you so much i appreciate this a lot
Great repair Jim, there was quite a lot going on all over that panel, with those creases, buckles and crowns, looks like you smashed it though! 💪 👏👍
Thanks for popping in and watching! Really enjoy your content! Your editing is on another level!
@@RealWorldPDRTraining Thanks Jim, being a mobile repairer here in the UK, means I get a lot of days off due to the heavy rain, so I get plenty of time to work on my videos 😄 lol!
Well, you set a very high bar! I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if you did video/production in a previous career.
I’m captured by it, but don’t think as a one man show I’ll ever invest the amount of time necessary to learn all that you do. Really a big fan here.
@@RealWorldPDRTraining Thanks Jim, keep up the good work as it's always great watching other techs at the top of their game as it opens my eyes to different styles and techniques I can try out 👍👍👍
Way to go Jim!! That was mangled but it’s coming along great!
If I’m repairing nasty stuff like that so close to the headlight il remove the light and Tesa tape the panel edge (where it meets the light) and it stops it kinking or blowing..... tape it to the front panel and you also get more access. I know you totally know what your doing. It’s just a tip for people watching/reading the comments
Respect the crowns!
Martin
Jim is great, but you are a real master Martin. ❤️
@@BilalBilal-gy6dg thanks! I’d say Jim’s better than me and better looking!
Awesome work! Thanks.
How much would a dent like this cost
That was really satisfying to watch. You're a magician.
Liked, commented (no surprise there) and subbed. Took the wife's GTI off-roading and found that trees aren't as forgiving as you might think. This vid was a great excuse to spend more on tools than a new fender. Thnaks![SIC]. Gonna check out your w/s too. This looks like a good time.
I needed this video to call the local body shop up for a quote
This is what I call real craftsmanship 😎👌
Thank you!
Great work. Just curious,.how.much this repair would cost including paint? Ty
Straight to the point I like that
I am learning more and more of dent repair and thank you so much dear sir
I have that exact same dent in the same spot that’s been there for about a month. I’ve been trying to find ways to fix it without having to pay someone to do it (currently have money issues). I’ve tried boiling water and a plunger, tried taking the bottom screws out and pushing it out with a hand, but without any luck. So I’m hoping at least the blowtorch and coal glue will help without ripping off the loose bumper I had to glue back together. Either that or my mom finds someone to pay for it
Amazing, beautiful job
Thanks man!
Just get a new fender, still you are the absolute best in teaching body damage repair.
How many hours labor gonna be charged to repair this fender in this manner? New fender 155$!(primered…just prep and paint then install) this is great work…on Occassion finding a fender is impossible and this would be useful.
Wow impressive!!
great job
Im driving my grandfathers old truck, its in great shape but it does have hail damage. Id like to try this but im super nervous. I looked at actual schools and the cost isnt something i can do rn. Is it really possible to learn online? I think maybe a video of your students progression would be super neat! I enjoy your videos. They're satisfying to watch! It really is an art form!
the problem with pdr on large dents is paint damage. Most of these dents are prepared ( kicked with a rubber soled trainer) . Large dents on harder steel inevitably crack the paint (even more so on previous repairs ) Still handy skills to have !
Most of these dents are not prepared. Actually none of them on this channel are.
You did incredible with that Dent Repair
I need to see some repair magic.
Wow. Nothing short of amazing. I'm not an easy person to impress. But I'm impressed. Just subscribed and can't wait to look at your other videos!
Hello. I think if you disconnected the fender from the bumper at the beginning, it would be easier for you to work with metal, because. you took the pressure off the metal!!! From the blow, the wing shrank, and who needs to be relaxed first !!! Good video!!!
You can talk and show all you like but you have to have the gift.
Well you are the repair King
Like how he said let’s not talk about it let’s get into it
Freaking out actually went better then I expected, the dent got tired of hearing me freaking out and you’ll never believe it the dent just popped itself back to factory show room condition. It even repainted and polished itself 😂
Hahaha you’re gonna have to teach me that!
You really make it look easy. Amazing!!
I had an out of control buck run into my fender... Could I use a hair dryer as a source of heat vs the torch?? No seriously... I don't want to burn the garage down... 👍😁
well done ,,you saved us a lot of panel beating repair money
Some of the real time clips were so beautiful to watch😍 thank you so much unfortunately I don’t have tools so I’m unable to try anything, but I would really like to gain these skills😢
Nicely done 👍
Nice job Jim
Jim, do you mind sharing total time spent on this ?
Hours ?
I usually draw the line somewhere as to how long doing such a PDR repair is justifiable before finishing off as a traditional panel / paint job.
Lucky I can do both processes I guess, and on nasty paint damaged repairs, PDR makes the panel / paint stage much smaller / easier.
He said about an 1h20m
@@TheRealYaro time stamp ?
I'm pretty deaf and can miss those little comments.
If 1hr 20mins, that's pretty impressive for sure.
I wish I had the money to waste that much propane 😂 really helpful video though
real nice, thanks
Learned so much from the Video!!! Thanks so much bro! 🙃
why subscribe?
because he zoomed what he's doing and explained 👍
not like others show up channels 😢
This is one of the most satisfying job I have seen in the internet. What type of price we can expect at body shop?
Wow you are really good at your job
Thank you! It’s pretty much all I’ve done in my adult life, so I better be!
That is an art. Wow.
What’s the name of the 1st tool you used to pull on the dents?
You are true professional! This is inspiring
Well thank you!
Hmm . . . I think I'll go down to the auto salvage yard and see if they'll let me practice on one of their wrecked cars. It would be a great way to get experience without worrying about screwing up. Plus, if I get good at it, I just fixed a fender for them for FREE.
That’s a damn fine way tk do it!
Where can I get all those tools you use very good video
Thank you!
impressive
Very good
How much do you charge for this?
How much would something like this cost ?
That's some Chris Angel shit right there.
**Magic**
MIND FREAK!
Nice job. Would like to know where you got that kit. That’s all I need, my car has a smaller dent than the one on the video and I think I can get it fixed with a kit like that. Would appreciate your feedback. Thanks.
Amazing.
I wish you were somewhere near where I lived I need this done to my 94 Sonoma
That was amazing 👏 🎉
Great work!
I need him for this so bad.
Thanks bro!
I would have worked the damage in a little bit different sequence than you did, but over all you did a great job!
You nailed it with the hot glue tip! 👍
Buenas cuánto tiempo tarde en hacer está reparación ???
Tiene mi like
What's the name of the tools you are using???
(The) rain for naval infantry (or marines) is just like an aftershave spray at a hairdresser ( or a barbershop)
Good job 👍👍👍🇺🇸

Yr the best! A member!
No... My members are the best. I'm not shit without all of you!
I'm beting this works, but what if the car is plastic? Will hot water and a plunger work for that?
This definitely works, and if the dent is soft your plunger will remove plenty of it out of plastic
How much would you typically charge for a repair like this?
I save the pricing discussion for the website www.realworldpdr.com.
Customers looking for prices will find that depending on their location and skill of the technician prices will vary.
This is amazing!
You’re amazing! Thanks for taking the time to watch!
I have to do this to my car... but for almost every single body panel. it's seen better days
Was this car fender plastic or metal? Would this work with a metal material?
Awesome !!!!!
Someone dented up my brand new truck. This gives me hope that it can be repaired. Now, to find a high quality dent repair specialist... that's the issue.
How much would a repair like the cost?
Awesome 👍
Very helpful 💯
Thank you! Seeing your name makes me wanna check your channel! I hope it’s about what I think it is 😂
@@RealWorldPDRTraining just a small gardener living the dream 😎
@@El_Chupacabra64 I can get behind that!
I’m making another video right now, when I go to post it I’ll make sure to subscribe
would replacing the panel be just as cost effective? btw..that was amazing. my car got hit with a bobcat bucket just below the driver side mirror and just....ahead of the door panel. rrrrrrrrr. i can't prove who did it so, i'm on my own
I agree my fender messed up on pass side but 250 I can have it all sent and painted but if u got the tools I guess myswell try tools get expensive same w labor prices
great lesson!!
Thanks for your sharing knowledge 👍
great video my friend, nice work. thanks. I'm following you.
Cool as hell
Can anyone tell me what that tool is. And where to get it . 🙏
I was wondering wouldn't it be easier to do the repair if you removed the fender?
I can take the fender off my 2002 Honda Accord in less than 10 minutes. With the fender removed, pushing and pounding it back into shape should be much simpler. Or is there some aspect of this process that I am unaware of that makes it better to leave the fender on?
I would think the time spent in removing the fender would save tons of time on back end by making the damage easily accessible. What do you think?
It’s a solid idea. But in practice doesn’t work like that . You need to be able to see the metal move (not just beat it with a. Hammer or something) through the whole process. Also the tension of the panel being attached helps the metal move, and frankly keeps it stationary enough to be precise.
@@RealWorldPDRTraining Thanks for the information, what you wrote makes a lot of sense.
Jim your a genius 👏
Awwww shucks. I don’t know about all that
@@RealWorldPDRTraining you have brought my level up a few knotches thankyou
Where can I buy this suction tool
i have a 2010 chevy HHR with a dent in the left hood just above the fender and headlight assy how would you go about taking a dent like this out of reinforced metal like that and the right rear just above the bumper the metal was pushed in between the bumper and taillights i can access it from inside the vehicle but its really tight any suggestions would be welcomed =)
Heat heat heat. Also starting with leather or some other soft tip is a must.
I have a 2024 and backing of garage very small bump took it to ford they said we're the damage is they can't pop it the quarter panel has to be removed for new because the dent is in a un popping to a new quarter panel. They told me to change they have to take front end then the little side panel replaced with new . makes me sick$ 2.800
Hmmmm. I’d be interested in seeing that.
Where is your shop or location I have same problem with my chevy 15 fender
