Body Line Paintless Dent Repair Break Down | PDR Training Tutorial

- My name is Myke Toledo. I’m a passionate paintless dent removal technician since 1991. I professionally teach one on one PDR training since 2001. I understand the details are what makes the major steps of pushing and tapping cleaner. You’ll find my tutorials super specific, clear with top camera angles so you can see what I see.
Not everyone can afford the best training. So myself and John Highley co founded www.denttrainer... to help newbies and veterans stay aware of all the new PDR techniques, tips and tools.
This youtube channel is a fraction of what I have to offer. I encourage you to please consider Dent Trainer if you are serious about learning paintless dent removal or even more important, BEFORE you invest in some PDR school you don’t know much about.

AMAZING WORK! This is just a public service announcement. Don't go with the low quote on PDR!! I went with the low quote, had pretty good Google reviews and 30 years experience but still FUBAR'd my door panel. Was just two dents, did cross the seam so not exactly basic, but got 3 quotes and nobody said it was an impossible job. Anyhow, he cracked paint and the area literally looks like a golf-ball. To fix it, has to go conventional body/paint now. And the joker who did the work is refusing to acknowledge any responsibility. Be careful who you choose for your work!
Couldn’t agree anymore. Furthermore.. Well, you see, there is a common misunderstanding when it comes to the art of paintless dent repair. Some people view it as a simple transaction, akin to purchasing a carton of milk from the store. However, this is a misguided perspective. PDR technicians possess a diverse range of talents and expertise, not unlike a plastic surgeon. When seeking the services of such a specialist, it is not wise to prioritize cost over quality. Instead, one should seek out the very best in the field, just as they would with any other professional service.
I’m a lifelong Automotive Technician for a major dealership…….always gravitated to the auto body aspects this is on another level !! From grinding ,shaping and the almighty Bondo!! To this !! Totally appreciate this !!! Keep up the good work!! Got my attention!! 😎😈👍🏼
I’m getting into PDR. Never heard of it in my life till I started as a detailer at a collision shop. I’ve see our PDR guy’s paychecks. Aside from the pay, I like this kind of work. Very excited about the future.
A year later, did you pursue? How's it going?
I could watch these all day. I had not even heard of PDR before last week. Turns out that we have a highly regarded PDR shop in the area. My car went in today so that two dents that have been irritating me for 4 years can be fixed. This really is magic. Thanks for the videos explaining the process!
How much did they charge you
THANK YOU MYKE!
This is definitely a technique combined with an art form. Patience is obviously a major factor cause you can always do a little more as you cant remove your mistakes as easily once made. Its an almost lost art as good paintless dent repair guys are very hard to find.
Hopefully more people including insurance companies utilize this field whenever possible in order to grow the field. You are an excellent teacher! I only wish you would have shown us how to properly use the heat since you mentioned it. People need to stress how important is is to salvage the original paint whenever possible for many reasons!
Thank god for people like you posting these videos! You demonstrate true professionalism Myke! May God bless you well!
Do you ever use dry ice? Or is that an over rated myth? I have seen old school bodymen use it on larger bare metal jobs combined with heat but not on paint, Thank you!!!
22 yr tech here, love the vids learn something everytime. Tool reviews rock!
I was doubting at first when he started tapping from the outside, but that's why I'm watching these videos, because he knows what he's doing and I'm trying to learn.
My compliments to you Mike. I enjoy watching your videos. Your very clear in explaining and humble.
Excellent tutorial Myke! Can't imagine why ANYONE would give a thumbs down? Every time I watch one of your vids I learn something and that's what it's all about, becoming a better PDR tech! Thank you
Actually I have to get new haters all the time... the old ones start to like me. 😊 Thanks for watching John 👊
hands down myke. you and john make THEEE best PDR training videos around. keep it up guys.
Thank you. We appreciate it very much. 👊
My husband and I are Content creators in the PDR field, and you sir, ARE ONE FINE TALENTED MAN!!! My Husband Garth Peterson is constantly talking about you!!! 👍 not promoting but PDR-Petersondentrepair is where we show our work, and Garth constantly tells me he will be as good as you he hopes someday!!!!
Well tell him thank you. He will be as good as long as he takes his time and wants to consistently do the best job he can. Continued success to both of you. 👍
Really good videography, as a beginner DIY PDR, really enjoyed this video thanks so much!
I'm just picking up PDR as a hobby or maybe a side hustle. So as usual I'm binging on videos. Not gonna lie, you had me fascinated when you started tapping down the perimeter and the center started coming out.
Wow!!! I don’t even do this type of work and this video was mesmerizing!!!
I have a video fixing car bump you can see it in my channel guys. But we use different strategy to fix it you can see it just visit.
This is amazing. Who came up with this concept? You learn something new everyday.
I’m very new to this process, so it’s wild to me that you were able to make such a difference with starting out tapping down the outside of the dent. Seems so counterintuitive. Really cool process and great info!! You’re an artist!
You Gentlemen are Magnificent 💯
Thanks 🙏
This is one of the best examples of how to tap down.
This is some of the most fascinating and satisfying work I've ever seen on youtube
You are a magician. Here in Germany, the average garage never does that kind of damages on edges like this. They want to change the whole part or at least want to use putty and paint.
BIG skill set shown here. You’re not going to learn this in an afternoon! Kudos
Very admirable skills right there!
Thank you very much!
I can finally see what we are talking about , with the reflection of the light , it looks like it has a design in the center of the dent , 08 .. As he taps , you can see that image shrinking. pretty impressive to manipulate metal like that.
Great job Myke, thanks for posting
Hat off to you guys for explaining the paintless dent repair. Dent Trainers are1#. 👍
This is therapy to watch
Well done 👍 That light is worth its weight in gold, being able to see such subtle detail. Very cool and skillful work. Do you find the newer vehicles more difficult to work with or do they have more forgiving materials? ✌🏼🍻
Thanks for the question. Depends. Todays cars are like beer cans. Very flimsy. However newer vehicles are going aluminum and that is twice as difficult. Older vehicles are like tanks but metal is much easier to shape with less chance of oil canning.
I realize it would be quite a hassle but it would be awesome to have a camera underneath showing the whale tale and a split screen showing on top. Front and back views. Awesome video thank you for the lesson. 👍🏻
😴
Oja
One of my first PDR videos and research....great work! Thanks for posting!!
Thanks for sharing your skills, Much appreciated from Lismore NSW Australia
Mesmerizing to watch!!! You're a wizard. When I took my car to get its dent removed in Wisconsin at this shop called Acci-Dent, they let me watch and It was a great learning experience and just interesting in general. I want to become a mechanical engineer and work on cars so this stuff interests me a lot :)
We teach a lot of woman how to do this. 😉
Also check out our online courses too denttrainer.com thanks
I'm doing some repairs on my girlfriend's dad's car and it has a dent on the rear wheel arch about the size of a fist going over the body line, I got most of it out but damn its hard to get good, its quite addictive though and now I find myself wanting to buy better PDR tools lol.. I think what i struggle most with is knowing how hard to knock down on the high spots like i don't want to cause a bigger problem.
I havnt even started and cannot wait to try the pdr kit on all 3 of my vehicles:)
I had no clue the amount of science that was behind this very impressive
I have a video fixing car bump you can see it in my channel guys. But we use different strategy to fix it you can see it just visit.
When doing this always tap the paint with the metal tool. It really helps the clear coat.
Insane how quickly it started coming out
Excellent video.
You are quite the Craftsman.
Thank you very much!
8:46 "Rock it, Rock it on the deeper parts. Coming down here to the bottom, I can Pin point it with the tip. You can rock it from one side and swing more aggressively from the tip. Or you can slide it down like that with pressure in the shaft."
That stripped lamp is genius
That was nice repair slick
Este señor es una Bestia, de seguro debe ser un muy buen entrenador e visto cortos videos y el acabado es Magia 🪄
Man that is incredible.
This is amazing it's like magic!
Buen trabajo Myke, felicitaciones desde Mexico

👍 great in depth tutorial
You sir... are an "artist".
Amazing, an big hug from Brazil
Talented man.
Thanks Myke as always Great Work !! Be well !
I can’t believe u hit the car but even better you fixed it like new 😮😅💪🏼
Der beste lehrer! The besst
Wish I didn’t live 2000 miles away. I’d bring my truck your shop.
That start made my week
Betapa senangnya dulu mengerjakan ini, tapi sekarang mulai ditinggalkan. Pekerjaan di Indonesia tidak ada lagi. padahal dulu merasa sangat spesial hanya beberapa yang bisa melakukannya
I need to add this to my services
I just discovered these videos. I find this process fascinating. I am 57 now and retired but getting bored fast and looking at a new field to get into. Would you recommend this as a second career for someone my age? Of course I want to be my own boss eventually. Would you set up a brick and mortar or start a mobile service. I was looking at doing a mobile service focusing on a repairs like this. Small and "quick". I say quick because I was thinking this was about 3 hours max.
Wow a real artist my friend. Could use your help with my Harley gas tank.
Amazing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Reading that light is giving me fits. How are you prepping area with heat? Thanks so much!
No heat necessary on this dent. Now if it were aluminum.. well different story. Thanks for watching. 👍
Many thanks for news
New subscriber from Bali Indonesia
Wow, amazing job man.
Whoever put that dent in there you brave and savage sob
Good vid!
I'm not sold on fancy expensive tools; as I've had nice tools made locally to my specs which are invaluable to my work, and at a fraction of the cost. Saying that, I do appreciate learning about new tools and good technique!
Excellent vid!
we do this at work with 80 million dollar software, when creating these surfaces you do it by hand with rubber hammers! awesome job!!!! (you are doing Class A Surface work using Zebras as a diagnostic tool) People do what you do using, CATIA, ALIAS, ICEM SURF electronic math modeling or also known as digital sculpting.
Thank you 🙏
Love it! I'm the bumper guy, I've likely seen you out and about. Used to work with Loren at Discover Infiniti back in the day. Scratch & Scuff. Wonder if you've heard of me?
Absolutely back in the early days 1998-late 2000’s 👊
That lighting on the dent looks like an abstract painting 😂
Hey Mike where I can buy those tools?
Wow ive never seen it done like this
This guy is the freakin best!
How much did that repair cost the customer?
where can I bring my Grand Cherokee too, I have a dent like that and know I wont be able to do that good work that you did. I am in Dallas TX
Check out Dfwdentguys.com
What was the total actual time to fix this dent? The video is only 10+ minutes, but I'm sure you are not showing all the hits, etc.
Excellent video. 👍🏻👍🏻
Wow, it is a kind of magic.
헐 부수고 보여주는 여유로움.
Good job 👏 👍
Excelent video..!!! Saludos from Argentina!!
Gracias 🙏
Magic 🪄
Yr brilliant bro, amazing work thinks for explaining you have answered so many questions, thank you! Good to see it done and explained!
This is ART !!!
Excellent tutorial! Thanks!
👍
Руку мастера сразу видно. 👌
Awesome show 👏..
Excellent job
🙏
Nice Job Bud. What should the temperature be when you heat it up? Thanks!
I think the heat helps the metal also, not just the paint.
Wow myke....in my country this is called "KETOK MAGIC"😂
I watched this a great effort.. but still I can't do the same.. different hand. 😅
Thanks for ur sharing
Great video
Can you share the link to buy the tools stick used repair from the inside?
Awesome Myke! Your videos are always inspiring.
Thank you Lee. 👊
Im a painter by trade and really wanna get in to PDR for a side husle what kit do you recommend to start with tool wise? You're videos are on point you make it look easy thanks alot man
There is one kit on Amazon that’s worth it it has 4 rods 2 rods are very good and it’s 33 dollars. I’m just starting this too and they can get very expensive. I mean a cart cost 400 dollars I don’t understand. I know quality tools cost but some of it is just ludicrous how expensive one rod can be. I’m gonna buy one rod at
a time. Good luck sir
great video
Is heat needed if you’re working in a a garage at home and it’s 90+ degrees outside?
What kind of light are you using on this job?
Hola amigo! No es mas facil de leer y mas rapido una lampara (light) ultradent o elimadent? Para desabollar, o con el reflejo de unas lineas se puede hacer exactamente el mismo trabajo? Saludos desde Argentina
La reflexión no es demasiado importante. Me gustan mucho las dos luces de la compañía. En este momento obtendría una luz de Elimadenttools.com. Tienes opciones sobre qué tan cerca o qué tan lejos está tu lente. Mover el tablero a menudo es lo que es importante también.
Hello good time Thank you for your good training I wanted to ask what is the brand name of your bars?

Good morning, excellent work and thanks for helping the people we want to learn, I would like you to help me bring this art to my country, I congratulate you
Great video!
You said 90% of repairs should have heat. Ideally how hot do you hit the panel to ?
Thank jou I learned à lot thnx for sharing goodluck bro
I love how this works on thin ass sheet metal. But, let’s see you try that technique on my 72 Chevy pick up LOL 😂
Hugh G. Rekshin ....thicker gauge sheet metal on older vehicles can still be repaired....there’s a little more effort involved, but still repairable.
