How many other PDR techs have had this pop up in their recommended feed suddenly?
Evidently that's why I'm getting so many "pros" ripping into me...man it's a DIY setup and in no way compares to what a pro does...hopefully you guys all understand that this is for the DIY guy....on an 11 year old car...we're just making some improvements. Thanks so much for your comment and for keeping it positive..I appreciate ya brotha
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer I understand you're just having a go for fun and that's all good.
The issue is 'customers' watch these videos, and start thing "well all you gotta do is glue one of those suction things and foooomp! Out it comes".
The last few years, we keep getting people trying to tell us how easy it is, or that they got most of it out for us but can't get the last little bit.
Again that's not your fault, but sometimes RUclips is a curse for us.
@@XSAoRAD exactly. The most annoying thing is having to repair people issues after they mangle a dent. Or sometimes pull the paint which means a respray in some instances. These kits are dumb. As for that dent in the video. It's definitely volcanoed and there really wasnt much progress from the first pull as is expected if you don't know what you're doing. This kit is only worth it if you don't care about your car and it's and old bomb that you just want to improve a little bit
Another PDR tech here. I do have to agree with the other comments in that this tool gives a false sense of ease that can get a lot of people in trouble. Almost always when I glue pull something it leaves the dent high. and unless you know how to "knock" the dent back down flat you almost always end up with a half high, half low mangled mess. Sometimes you can't fix that kind of stuff either. So i guess if you're bored and have $60 and a few hours to spend starting a skill that takes years to develop on your ride of unknown value, then more power to ya, just don't be mad when the pdr guy charges you more to fix your mistakes, if he can.

Good video... Just a quick note to other DIY users. You should start move down in tip size as the dent begins to reduce in diameter otherwise you're pulling on metal that has already popped out...which can sometimes create a 'high'...not what you want.
Good advice thanks.
Price is $79.99 now in March of 2024. I should have found your video 4 years ago. Thanks for posting.
inflation is real...that's for sure!
I just bought mine for $16 online.
@@ngaihan Where did you find it for that price?
@@nofortunatesonII I bought it online via an app called Lazada. The item is from China and I’m in Singapore(south east Asia) so I’m not sure if it will deliver to your country. You can give it a try.
@@ngaihan Thank-you for the reply and info.
The video is 4yr + old.. but 🏆 outstanding job in making this video with simple instructions & details. Thank u
Glad it helped
I've used these type of of pullers before, it's worth a try..The professionals with the rods can work wonders though and make the dents invisible
A buddy of mine put a bunch of small dents in the side of his Subaru, and I told him to check out paintless dent removal. He didn't listen and had the dents filled and they practically painted half his car. It doesn't look right. This shows the right way to fix dents! Nice video!
I have a 1984 Mercedes 300 SD diesel. It has MULTIPLE dents it was in a hale storm. A body shoppe wanted 1000's to do body work. I think you just solved my problem, THANK YOU!!!
Bought a Honda 2014 Civic May 1 2023 for $5500 cash from a car dealer with 200K miles. The biggest issue was DENTS and DINGS! SO supper glad I am watching your video! I get the body looking cool, I will feel like a million dollars. :)
Use alcohol and not that orange tool. I just bought the kit and wanted to browse around for videos and this is a great one. Thanks for posting this.
I’ve seen that thing advertised online, thought it was a gimmick! Genuinely surprised it worked so well
Dont be fooled you can definitely damage your car worse if you dont know what your doing. Im a 12 year tech and idiots using these kits and calling us when it doesnt go right is a nightmare and we charge more to clean up the mess they make of the metal attempting it
Paid for itself with the 1st dent. But like any tool, the results are in the hands of the user. Great job finessing!
Ok I bought it and it worked for the most part. There is still a little dimple I can't get out, tried numerous times. This is on my microwave so it was bothersome when I dented it. I must say, the dimple is sooo small it's hard to notice. You really have to look. I tried to remove a dent from our truck door, it's going to take a bit more work will update later. Hate how the glue sticks to some of the tabs, extremely hard to pull off. The blue tabs are the easiest to pull glue off. Was worth the purchase.
Good honest videos as the glue kept coming off mine . I had to walk from the kitchen to the car so that didn’t help I will try doing it closer next attempt
why did it take me this long to find this video, I hate my deductible being so much to pay, I'm buying this kit thanks so much for explaining how to use all the tools I'm doing this!!!
A toaster lol.. pretty accurate description... I have a few dents like this that I can work out on my vehicle..
I would buy the kit just from watching this video 👍
Just paid off my 2018 Subaru Crosstrek. Kept it flawlessly dent free while living in CO until about a year ago when we relocated to crowded CA and my wife began making weekly trips to San Francisco parking in these high rise parking structures. Now there’s a quarter sized dent in each rear door. Since I’m keeping it, think I’ll buy this kit and give it a whirl.
Thanks for the YT vid, brutha. I happen to own a low mileage 04 Element with a few door dings. I was able to make them look better by 70% with the dent puller suction cups sold on Amazon. I ordered a different dent puller kit w/gun.
Nice Job Josh and it's really great how well your work, building this channel, has progressed!!🇺🇸
That worked way better than I expected! Thanks for the review.
Man paintless dent repair is the future. I've seen a guy on RUclips do some crazy sh$% and its better than if a body shop did it
I got a quote for a few small dents some years ago,mit was over $500. You got my attention since my dents are still there, along with one or two more, lol. I’ve only seen the cheap Online video ads of knockoffs
I'm impressed, I honestly didn't think those things would work. Great job. 👍
Nice video. That kit did a good job. The pros also use a mirror to help spot/remove dents and, on Eg door panels, a bar that slips inside the window aperture, to push the dent out from behind used in conjunction with a pencil sized nylon punch.
Men thank you, I hope works in my dent , this last sunday some one hit my door , I'm so angry
hungry? lol
This is our exact car, right down to the model and color. I did autobody and paintwork professionally for over 20 years when I was younger. Our Element has a few annoying dings just like this car. I was aware of these dent removal took kits. Great to see one demonstrated so well. The cost and time involved in fixing these dings the old-school way would be ridiculous.
Used a similar slide hammer puller with glue sticks to pull out a nasty dent on the front of Tahoe before I sold it . It's definitely awesome and little addicting once you get one of them out.
Really nice! I have a few in my car, one has bugged me for years...LOL. About the size of that back dent you pretty much got out. I may have to grab one of these!
After watching this I bought this kit and fixed all my dents....you'd need a microscope to see anything....amazing thanks for sharing.
The local guy wanted 700 to fix my dents and I did it for 70 😁
Thanks again, subscribed.
Thank you for posting this and your presentation skills. Appreciate both your DIY abilities and your positive attitude. BTW, I’ve had PDR done professionally and the results were in all but one case were disappointing. One company was very professional but the others were quick buck artists more accustomed to “chasing hail” with little accountability for their work.
I bought a set from Walmart on sale last year. I pulled a 6" x 5" x 1" deep dent out of a rear quarter on a Taurus. It took many pulls and went through a lot of glue sticks but it was worth it. It is fun to pull the dents.
How did you got they glue off
@@primetheory258 Read the directions carefully. I had to scrape most of the glue off with the plastic scraper in the kit. Them sprayed 90% rubbing alcohol on and rub with a soft cloth. Good Luck, Rick
@@richardross7219 thank you. I appreciate ya.
Perfect timing! was doing some across the street, over the tree, around the bush basketball trick shot and nailed my brand new 2022 trail boss..we all laughed..and then i saw it...im gonna give this a shot and re-comment after the results! awesome job
I loved watching a guy pull a dent from a mini van's front fender using popcorn. Never would have believed it if I hadn't seen it done.
I've watched several of these but you were the most successful. I think you were more patient than the others and slowly eased out the dent while the others rushed it a bit. I bought a kit and hope to have success as well. I think ill probably add a heat gun to warm the metal also.
How did it work
Yeah how did it work
Josh those dent pulling kits work better in 80+ temperatures. Warm metal or aluminum will fall back into shape easier.
Well done Josh, thanks for showing us, much appreciated. Thumbs up.
Brilliant video, just what I need , Thanks from Spain.
Nicely done. It’s ALWAYS appreciated to see real people do real DYI. Thanks!
What does DYI mean?
@@speterg2 do yourself it :)
Amazing, especially the rear. Didn't think it would get that sharp indented pointy looking one out.
awesome review thanks for your time. Im UK based but will get one of those kits and get after it on my old Boxster..Cheers!!
I’m not sure what the ‘best’ year(s) of Elements are but as far as curb appeal goes, it looks like you’ve scored a winner.
paid through the nose for it...but only 60k miles on a 2009 is priceless...this vid is several years old and I've driven it every day since!
Great video. I will have to keep this kit in mind for any potential future dents! Very affordable quality kit. I bet this guy sells a few of these because of this video!
Now I know what I want for my upcoming Birthday 🎂 thanks, Dave!
3 years ago, this was done. August 20th roughly, we just had a storm that sent down golf-ball-sized hail and placed a few good dents in my SUV. I was looking at Amazon and now I know more about what to look for and do, thank you and I subscribed and hit the like button. Take care...
Great tip on the gripper, slowly working it thru👍👍
I have been using tactics removing dents for a really long time which is why i went to an automotive school but this is easier with the right gadget. Nice job 👍🏼
Thanks a bunch for showing us that, Josh, that is a good tool.
I'm about to embark on hail damage nice seeing a guy do it like you did looks simple enough
Listen man. I like how positive you are and how you present yourself as good man. Keep it please with this tone. Wish you all the best with your channel.
Really enjoyed the video. I do not have any dents in our vehicles but you make me want to buy this tool to be ready for the first one. You made it look so easy. I have a class C mechanic friend that uses similar items that cost an arm and a leg and that's why they charge so much for such a little job. Keep up the fun videos. We are up here in Canada and enjoy the videos from the south.
Excellent presentation! You convinced me to buy this device. I LOVE my 2007 Honda Element and it has several small dents from door dings. Bought it new and it now has 375,000 miles. The only repairs were replacing the AC condenser fan and the driver’s side window regulator, both of which I did myself.
I have a 2010 Element the same color and I just purchased the Eastwood kit. Very helpful video. Thank you!
Simple and cheap. Can’t beat that, not to mention you have the tool to pull other dents out in the future!
amen!
That’s a great tool thanks for sharing
The black dog on the side grass thinking can we go and play now ?🤣
Patients is definitely a virtue along with attention to detail. 👍
Nice job Josh, That kit is well worth $60 keep up the good work thanks for sharing.
"You've never seen a dent pulling tool like this!"
Me: *flashbacks to the old Pops-A-Dent commercials*
I’m getting this kit. This is a great video. Thank you.
This looks like a perfect kit to try on my little ‘99 Miata, which has 15-20 very light dents around the body, barely noticeable unless you look for them. Then it’s onto restoring the paint.
Harbor Freight has a similar kit for $15 and it worked well for the dents on my cars
Would you happen to know the name of the kit?
Awesome video sir! I bought a kit similar to yours before finding your channel. Except my kit didn't have a slide hammer, so I found another kit with one. I think I spent $35 total. I bought a 2019 truck with hail damage on passenger side. I assumed a lot of the dents would disappear in the hot sun of July-August, but that didn't happen. I figure my 15 year kid can assist or even do some of the work vs spending several thousands for local shop to do the work, plus we will have gained knowledge and experience. Thanks again for the video!
How did the project work out for you? 😉
In Romania Honda Element are very rare.I had two, one 4x4.It was the best and most reliable cars i ever used...really love it!
Thank you for the video. I have some dents to pull and you've given me the confidence to give it a go.
After a while Josh, do a report what you think about the Element, I'm curious. thanks. I like when you talk about different subjects and review equipment.
I have always wondered how that type of dent repair system works, thanks for sharing !
Awesome video Mr. Josh! I have a ding to fix and was looking at this kit wondering if it would be good enough, and it looks to do the job good enough for me. Too shelf as always.
It has gone up to about a hundred bucks now. Still a good deal!
Awesome video Josh, love your videos, keep'em comin'!
Only use a little bit of glue to hit the center of the dent. Not enough to cover the whole dent. That way the glue pulls the inner most part of the dent out.
Thank you, that did help. The dimple is still very small. It's on a microwave, I'd love to know if you got your dents completely out?
You’d think this would be obvious, but evidently not. I’ve watched a few of these and it seems like most guys put on more glue than there is dent.
@@DsoginventorUsually because the directions state to put a lot of glue to cover the pull thing, these people don't even know how to use their own product.
Your video is the #1 reason why I am waiting on my Cybertruck reservation. The 3mm thick SS exoskeleton is virtually dent proof.
thanks Josh, very informative. glad you did this one.
That's a neat gizmo! I have a few dints that I could use that thing on...
The best and effective way I have ever seen. Great job
I have an old sportscar from the 70s that has hail damage. I got an expensive quote to fix it. I stuck it in storage for the last 7 years. I think I might just try to pull the dings out myself now.
This worked a treat on my Bentley. So good!
Heating the panel before applying the tab can be helpful. And so can rubbing alcohol for glue removal.
Wouldn’t that keep the glue from hardening?
My wife must have owned that Honda ! Our conversation at home.. Where did that dent come from? Wife: I dont know that wasnt me. 😣 lol. Good vid
Brilliant video video thank you ❤️👀👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Eastwood dent remover. Feeling lucky punk!! Lol. TY for the awesome video going to buy one. Some jerk put a ding in my Honda also
As you gradually pull the dent out use a smaller diameter tip. This will speed up your progress. Great video
Exactly
Minimum glue and always in the centre of the impact on sharp dents. Larger pad and more glue on say a knee dent etc.
As he said you need to work the dent out slowly to get the best results.
It takes some practice and especially PATIENCE to get the best result.
Isopropyl Alcohol makes “Hot Snot” release from an object.
If you've been a gearhead for any length of time, you're familiar with Eastwood. They're known for having some the best restoration equipment on the market. Eastwood supports their tools and the car restoration community.
Awesome, I get any dents, gonna have to try that.. thanks for sharing, be watching..
Half dollars? I remember silver dollars. OOPS! Hello, AARP? Social Security? Medicare? Eastwood makes good stuff. I'm impressed.
Wish I had a suitcase full of the Morgan Dollars I have.....
In 1963 we were westbound, stopped in Las Vegas, NV for a day, then headed South on US 66 ( now I-15). We stopped for gas. It totaled $4. Dad handed the man four silver dollars, each dated 1879. They were quite common back then. Not any more.
@@bcgrittner In 1966 i was in Bluefield Va.. and put money in a candy machine at the train station and it gave my change back in 1890s to about 1910 coins
Those were the days, weren’t they!
@@bcgrittner yes they were
Nice video, thanks for sharing. Try using 99% rubbing alcohol to make the glue release without using the plastic chisel; also, push the tabs and hot glue into the finish a little more to get a more solid connection between the gripper/slide hammer and the ding you're pulling on. For large dents, get a cheap football, air wedge, basketball or beachball, and push them behind the dent when deflated, then use air pressure to push the metal out, preferable when the metal is heated up a little by the sun or a heat gun. The cheaper balls and air wedges will explode, so wear eye protection and keep a safe distance, but the metal will move. It's also a lot of fun! Good Luck!
Where the heck do you find 99% rubbing alcohol? This pharmacist of 30+ years has only found the 70% to be the strongest "rubbing alcohol" commercially available. Hell, even grain alcohol is only 70 - 90% alcohol.
That was a great demonstration using that kit. Very informative, thank you.
Good stuff SRF, just getting into this on my own, and this is very helpful - excellent instruction!
I was skeptical at best but, hey, that did pretty good job!
You have every reason to be skeptical it isn't that easy a lot was edited out.
Come to Jonesboro Arkansas.. I have some dents you can work on to get some more practice!
you have such a talent sir thank you for sharing.
Sealey are rebranding and selling this exact kit here in the UK for over £150. And mugs here bought it. It's cheap and nasty. But, it's okay if you're paying $60 for it.
Great video - hint - to minimize the risk of scratching the paint when removing the Tab or the glue residue, spray a little Wax & Grease remover (Prepsol) or medical alcohol from a Pharmacy - it dissolves the glue and won't damage the paint 🏆
Cool thanks for the tip
Agree about the alcohol. It wasn't mentioned once and he's either the luckiest guy around or he left a lot out of the video.
Man never see anyone who cares so much about dents on a farm vehicle! Usally we are betting who will have the few dents by the end of the year! But then never seen anyone use a honda for a farm vehicle. Either way good work bud! I remember my buddy's friends truck was so dirty I mean layers of dust inside and out there was more dirt inside the truck than the outside. I looked over and said man this truck has seen some years of ranch work he looked at me laughed and said years it's only 6 months old only had 1 oil change. I was dumbfounded I mean ok I understand going to get dirty but come on destroy a truck in 6 months a $70K Chevy Diesel insane. Lol just thought I would share that story! Good work on dents I am working on mine definatly takes some patience!!
This is hilarious.
Thanks watching from London uk
It works like magic!
Cool vid Josh keep em coming sir we love all your content
Thanks Kenneth
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer no sir thank you for all the stuff we learn man.
I did it with a wood dowel and hot glue on my MC fuel tank.
Thanks for your video, I’m attempting a couple of similar dents to the one you fixed on the boot door 🤞
I have one of those. Saved me a lot of money on a rental car. I usually clean before and after with alcohol to take out residues. Just be careful with the hsmmer. I took once a chunk of paint hahaha
You have to tap the dents with the tap down destress tools to relax the tension created by the originL dents.
A line marking light exposes the stress points.
