Scotty Kilmer terrific process
Scotty Kilmer

Scotty Kilmer looks like millennials won’t be able to do this.
at least we didn't destroy the entire planet for our children's children's children in the name of the almighty dollar
That dent repair guy is obviously thrilled by the unique chance to appear in a Scotty Kilmer video.
Martin Fiala No he's just not easily impressed by people.
in other words NFG
He’s just working lol
Moving Chicane I don't he'll be coming back again. 😂😂bet he's moved business to another state. 😂😂😂
Hahaha😂
This guy is an artist.. this takes a lot of skill and patience, not only dealing with the dent, but also the people..
Lol the guy be like: Please I just want to do my job peacefully.
haha that guy looks like oh god a crazy man with a camera
***** he was pobably just not too camera happy
***** I'm a camera and i think i am better than the body artist and the camera guy
Billy H. WOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
E. MAN WOOOO!!!!!!!!
PDR is a real art. Some people can never do it. This guy will always have a job! Imagine the cash you could make doing this on the side!
On the side of what? (see what I did there.)
Scotty - "Did you ever think about a career in percussion?"
Repair Guy - "Ummmm NO"
😂
without hesitation
"Some evil swine." 😂 I love the channel Scotty! Been watching for years and always come here when something goes wrong on my cars. I even stop by when nothing's wrong. Thanks for all the help over the years!
Paintless dent repair guys are magicians.
Scotty, I'm a diesel mechanic, heavy duty and truck and transport.
I must say I do enjoy watching your videos, where I work i find a couple videos do help sometimes to get another mechanics opinion on some mistakes, and they are very helpful when it comes to gasoline engines, where sometimes im not the greatest expert everyone thinks I am. Thanks Scotty!
This doesn't teach how to take out dents, it teaches you to call a guy to do it.
mack cummy ...as you definitely should seek out a professional for this type of repair 👍🏻
Know your limitations I suppose 👍
technically he also showed the process for doing it, so if you have the skill go ahead and DIY
@@danielj5650
Yep 😁
@@harwoods11 Scotty was smart enough to say, "I don't know".
The best ability any DIY person can have is the ability to know which jobs are beyond your skill-set and should be left to the professionals.
its even true for professionals, who know their limitations and call for help when needed. They may be a pro but they may run into cases where what they're dealing with they have not personally seen or dealt with before in that case the pro needs to call a pro LOL.
William Todd
That's when the pro calls a specialist. :)
I'll try this at home!! Lol
If a job is beyond your abilities at the moment it’s not suddenly going to be within your abilities sporadically at some point in the future if you just sit back and proclaim defeat... you learn things you currently do not know how to do by learning to do things that you currently do not know how to do and you do this by doing it
William Todd LMAOOOO lpp
A Real Specialty Trade I didn't even realize existed. Thanks Scotty
I love the paintless dent removal, I've used them before and they are not very expensive. I'm sure this guy is getting a lot of business now as well due to you advertising him.
Scotty is the nuardwar of the mechanic industry
For people, who say, that dent repair guys looks like he is not happy about something. When you have a business, advertising is super important!
I dont think he was unhappy or something like that, because when big youtube channel showing your business and work, you cant ask for better advertising.
I have small dealership and Id personally be very happy to be presenting my business on such channel.
Truly an art form, this takes patience beyond my own
You Can Juss See On The Guys Face He Didn't Wanna Be On Video LOL
This is amazing, that was a bad dent, not just a tiny ding. And no grinding through the galvanize and having to repaint.
Good to know Scotty Kilmer sometimes DIY is not always possible and you have to call a pro.
Though I think he could have finished faster than 2 hours. You always work a little slower with someone watching.
I'M IMPRESSED WITH THE DENTLESS REPAIR...IT LOOKS GOOD AS NEW.
2:12 he almost got up and left.
Not really
🤣🤣🤣
My brother has his own PDR biz, it's seriously a skill. It takes a good 12 mo to learn to do it right and years to perfect.
Love your channel Scotty, as a former Firestone owner I have had my share of mechanics and service writers, You my friend are a true Technician!
I like the look on the Dent Dog's his face at the beginning: "Oh shit.... this is going to get annoying really fast. Where are my headphones." 5 min later "DAMN IT! It's not helping!"
+ThePolyatheist He could be using a stethoscope, though I don't know for sure.
That's Hilarious XD
ThePolyatheist i know lol i saw his headphones. He like I should got the noise canceling ones.
By far the best “Rev up your engines!”
Scotty made the dent guy day by making this video never seen anyone happier being asked questions
The world needs more people like you Scotty Kilmer!
Like most body work, there's a lot of skill behind what those guys do. It would be easy to make it worse, and harder for a pro to fix later.
South Main Auto Repair us locksmiths have a fee like that lol, basically whatever the customer touches is beyond repair and has to be replaced instead of repaired in 99.999% of cases
South Main Auto Repair lol I know that romex thing, look on my channel, the used car dealer used lamp cord to rewire my stereo before I bought it, had spiked several fuses and still couldn't find the right fuse to fix the headlights so they ran the high and low lamps off the parking light circuit which still didn't work because they spiked the fuse but the wire melted..
South Main Auto Repair lol small things matter, I saw scotty hit a key with a hammer once to fix a stuck ign and it made me cringe. I do sometimes tap a key to get it going to turn on so I can remove the ignition, but never with anything heavier than holding a screwdriver by the bit end and tapping (very very lightly, less is more remember) the key with the handle... less is more with locks in all manners of speaking. Thats why I named my business "the lock whisperer"
9 out of 10 times anyways I simply re cut the key to factory specifications and the locks work perfectly fine again. But those locks you have to fight with to turn on should never be turned off again until you remove them if they come out like 99% of modern cars. We used to love the pre 94 gm cars because we could remove the steering wheel with non powered hand tools and pull the lock out and replace it in about 15 min and get anyone going no matter if the lock was fubar, gummed up or lost keys... tell me, does your shop service vats equipped gm cars? You must know what a pita that caused, though it reduced car theft by 75% across the usa at the time of it's introduction.
99% of the time it is either the contact springs are worn, or the wires to the ignition are broken on paskey 1 type. They do not lend well to tampering and no one will ever tell you this, but they are sensitive to resistance changes of ~1 ohm and there is no way whatsoever to make a reliable repair on them by splicing or soldering wires. The entire wire assembly must be replaced and carefully fished down the steering coloum before being plugged into the connector under the kick panel. One of the huge problems the system has is that if the system picks up rhe right key and starts, but either one of the wires get disconnected after 60 seconds of the car running, the vats system goes to "sleep" and will re activate when it next detects a valid resistance, or when the battery goes flat, then she won't start til it reads a valid resistance, and if its intermittent it won't work for 3 minutes. Every subsequent attempt to start will add 3 minutes on top of that wait with no way to bypass.
depending on the level you need the dent taken out to, sometimes a 35 dollar disount tool dolly and hammer set can take out these too. My cars are mostly beater cars and would be a good car for those wanting to practice dent removal to come over and learn the craft on:)
C'mon people! If you like Scotty, pass the word. He deserves 1 million subscribers! Thank you.
Very smart of you Scotty to make a video of the guy fixing the dent. You paid for the repair many times over with RUclips advertising revenue from over 3 million views!
Pdr is an art. Honestly amazing some of the dents i had removed for a fraction of the cost of paint.
Helping me out. Big Time!
I love your videos. I completely forgot about your channel, just subbed. Awesome to find you here of all places.
Hahah of course I’d run into you
Great vid Scott! I had a 95 Ford Thunderbird that got blasted during a hail storm in 2003, and I found a great PDR company here in Plano that made the car look like it had never been hit by anything. Best $4000 my insurance company ever spent!
It's amazing what they can do these days without drilling and Bondo. I had a front fender fixed this way about 10 years ago and was amazed. Most pros shops use special lights to help check the accuracy/smoothness at an angle.
I love this guy
Give him his own show
kingschnitz Scotty or the dent guy?
I second that. Scotty has so much personality that I believe he would do well on his own show on Speed Network.
Dude he has won 2 Emmys for being on shows!
AdmiralAsma Yes
Scotty Kilmer motto: Don't sweat the petty things,Pet the sweaty things! You're the MAN SCOTTY!
Learning to read the dent and surrounding areas is a worthy skill. Taught my son how to do it and he just took off with it..
PDR is a real awesome skill to have, i purchased a PDR kit a couple of years ago and have not had the time practice on a hood or fender, i have had work done on my black Chrysler 300 from a pdr guy and wow what a awesome job they can do, it is really amazing what kind of repairs they can achieve with this system.
The dent guy wore headphones so he wouldn’t have to listen to Skcotty’s loud yelling
Good technique to perform the paintless repair.
Top subject Scotty, as a panel beater/spraypainter I'm finding this method to be a cost saver but it's a must to have all the tools and not just pretend anything will do the job, otherwise it will cost more to repair in the end.
that is superb. didn't even realise such a service existed to be honest. thanks for bringing this to my attention scotty great job. are you still sure you don't want to move to England?
I just snorted at 'Evil Swine'!! LOL!!
its nice to see a person take pride in his work. good job! !
Hey Scotty, how much it cost to have this dent removed. Thx
that guy did a really good job. i use them when we get hail in texas around feb-may
Scotty is out here living his best life
A true craftsman.
I like ur enthusiasm
SCOTTY, YOU ROCK! THANKS FOR REMINDING US IT'S O.K. TO SOMETIMES ASK OTHER FOLKS FOR HELP.
Great description for a hidden skill - even here in Australia. I use these guys.
I always wondered how dents were removed. This video was very educational!
wow that takes a lot of skill and talent.
dsouzand that's why I made this video, to show people. I could never do it myself, no patience for that kind of small work.
Thanks Scotty for all your great videos they are all very helpful I watch them all. Thanks Scott.
I like these quick videos, not all talk like that other channel we all know about on here.
Anyone else thing the guy from Dent Dogs looks like New York Jets QB Ryan Fitzpatrick?
He is GOOD!!!
That guy's an artist. Great work.
Excellent as always Scotty! keep up the great work!
Come on buddy smile you've got 2 million views!
Shut up
3:08 I see now, Scotty didn't want to mess up his wife's car! lol
Man. I see you everywhere. lol
I been coming to this guy’s vids for several years.
Nice video. They use a line board where they can see how tapping certain spots is needed for the lines to become parallel. One could think of it as a GPS for directing technician where to pull or tap dents. There's another video I once saw on youtube that was in California where a pdr tech removed a dent where the dent was deep on the edge of a front fender on a bmw crushing the body line. I personally had it done on my volvo before I lost it in hurricane Sandy. It is NOT always 100% depending how deep the dent is to begin with. What I mean is sometimes you can see a slight wrinkle in the paint if you look at it at certain times of the day. Car companies went to a lighter gauge of sheet metal for many years. My s80 now has the old fashion type of metal thick as anything. I think pdr started in a Bmw assembly line in Germany when there was a mistake on the line supposedly.
"How did you learn how hard to hit it?"
Well, there's multiple answers. However, when you hit it just right, and you hear that "oh god" type of moaning, then you already know that you hit it just right...
Damn Skippy
Electric space wizard
+Justin Boomgarden scotty dont need no bondo to see the wiz
+Justin Boomgarden Ah hhaaaaaaa electric space wizard!
+Henrik Nilsen great song from the mcm guys :)
scotty kilmer you would make an excellent cartoon voice over actor!.
but excellent advice and a good vid too ; )
dang you guys talking smack about Scotty. yeah dude is loud and can sound energetic but dude loves what he does and you can tell he enjoys making these videos knowing he is helping others. Dam internet bullies are the worst. Keep it up Scotty because I'm sure every person that is being a complete jerk has used some of your advice or has ran into your videos looking for advice at least once. thanks for helping and putting these up for free.
what's charge on a Lil job like that
160
This guy hates his job
A job that requires patience and steady hands, I'll suck the life out of you. lol
+Jackie chan_WTF And worrying they will not be happy with the end result!
+Owen Bochner
Speak for yourself.
billybassman21 That's when I throw my tool bag that the customers feet and yell "FINE YOU DO THEN!!!". lol
Not really. As you can see it just needs a lot of concentration and caution. He probably didn't like being on video tho lol that might be it.
The guys from Dent Dogs are great! Dan from Dent Dogs worked on my car before and honestly I can't tell the dents were ever there! and I'm very OCD about my car too. If you're in the Houston area, I would definitely recommend them all day
very complex and great craftsmanship
wow that was some major skill there...any hint on the $$ to fix that Scotty?
140 bucks in this two hour job
forget the 140 bucks, i just do the job and everyone leave happy
i like car mechinc sim makes me think on simple jobs tasks, you can replace eveyy thing on the car, and all it is a fuel fitter, or air filter
and i like about car sim it gives me problems to solve, like math problems, without useing no math by useing good common sence, and not lieing to ourself
mechic sims reminds me of work at jobs also, the job part is mess up doing to job is good, now they screen you they certifie you they lable you and i dont have nothing, as i am working there people have have to sertifications, there compley dumbass and really dont know what there doing, and i am a dumbass and know i am a dumbass figure things, if had a chance to figure out thing i could make it , but have to bow down to managers that dont really know what there doing,
It takes about 5 to 7 years of full-time practice to become a good professional dent technician. Be careful who you go to for this type of service.
Who says ? What about .. "The Natural" .. 😏
I didn't think it could be done.Nice job and video.
Great Job! I like your show. Unfortunately, my car got repaint all over, esp. touch up on the doors.
don't get mad get glad
Nice, he did one hell of a job. But how much does a job like that run? I'm like you Scotty, not artistically inclined lol.
Last time I had it done on a dent that took two hours was around $150. It's practically all labor hour charge and the cost just depends on how long it takes. The big plus is though if the car is young you save the OE paint and clearcoat which is big value retention.
Cragified 140 bucks in this case
Ya that's not bad considering the time they have to take, the labor, and you are saving a ton. Thanks guys.
Scotty Kilmer $140 is worth every penny. Sure beats some of the body shop hacks who will charge a lot more only to end up rusting in a couple of years.
Scotty Kilmer For $140, I'd say that is worth it to have your car look good.
Scotty I went to PDR school and it's not easy it takes a while the pdr guy can tell you LOTS OF PRACTICE
Scott lived for free in my unfinished home that was still being constructed, in San Clemente in the late 1980s. He was doing some framing construction work on my home. I hope that he is happy now.
So scotty you paid another guy to provide your wife with happiness?
didn't last long, cause some swine in a walmart parking lot crushed the same fender with a truck and insurance paid for a new one and bumper
That swine must have been my father. He seems to love fucking people over with false promises. Like the time I never went to Disneyland or when he said he'd take me out to play some catch.
At least it wasn't the pool boy.
damn.. that car needs oprah
Scotty Kilmer great work, you got me interested in mechanics again,
That guy looked like he gun knock you the fuck out lol
Thank you Scotty your info was fantastic. All your videos always help someone sooner or later. I love working on my own vehicles. Some, pencil pushing people who can't seem to get off thier secretary spread asses and work on there own vehicles and cause trouble for no reason are just jeleous, just ignore them their vessels fitted for destruction anyway. Love you Scotty,💕 thank you 💃💃Now where in N. California do they sell these little suction cups at? Home Depot I hope Got 2 remove a ding/scrtch someone t-boned the little panel right under my vans side doors
Very Impressive and unique technique~DEFINITELY
worth trying!
DIY - call a guy who knows how to fix the dent
holy fuck Ryan Fitzpatrick
na, this guy did a much better job than Ryan ever did. Heck, this year Ryan was the only quarterback in the NFL rated lower than that bum Osweiler for the Texans.
Scotty Kilmer wow, Osweiler can't even escape getting roasted on an auto mechanic's channel. Are you a Texans fan, or did you stop rooting for a team after the Oilers left for Tennessee?
Sadly, I can not root for a team that has an owner who knows absolutely nothing about football and continues to support possibly the worse GM in the history of the NFL. Why anyone would keep a GM that has made so many blunders, yet fire all the other coaches over time is beyond me. And let's see, he fires Kubiak and Phillip as coaches, and a year later, gee, they win a super bowl in Denver coaching the Broncos (AND, look at their GM then, John Elway who really does know the NFL). So really, I have no hope for them at all with the present owner.
Go Cowboys !
Scotty Kilmer Couodnt agree with you more. The new quarterback looks promising.
Paintless dent removal is an art & can fetch a handsome money, dent removal guys are awesome magicians they can catch attention of car lovers & they can also get easy TV channel video footage.
Hi Scotty, about that dent, I didn't think it was that bad and after a few drinks, I thought I had better skedaddle on out of there. I did leave a note under the wiper.
Dang, wouldn't the labor have cost more than just getting a new fender?
+Kyle Ritchie obviously you don't live in houston and have never paid for a new fender and then having it painted and the paint doesn't match the rest of the car then. It costs tons more, on this car, 700 bucks
I wasn't trying to be rude, I was just curious.
+Scotty Kilmer You just dont know what kind of cars we get repaired here in our country and paint matches 95% of the time. Repair is pretty cheap here.
+Huzaifa Haroon sure, but I'm in Texas, and body work here it pretty expensive due in part to government regulations kicking out all the little guys doing it in small garages
+Scotty Kilmer yes, I've heard that the government regulations are very strict in the U.S.A.
Here, mostly accidental write off cars are imported, repaired. Fiber replicas dashboard and steering installed to cover blown airbags. Sold as all original.
Check out my thread
Accidnetal Jdms exposed on Pakwheels to get an idea of how expert people we have here to repair the cars :D
and How we paint cars in open air
ohhh Scotty !!! you could at least give him some free advertising like a phone number at least
they didn't want it
This does work and well. Just as long as the paint isn't broken. If that's the case you may as well fix it the other way painting , it filling it.
I've done dents before and that was a NICE job.
I see Ryan Fitzpatrick finally found his true calling. NFL QB was not it.
What was the cost for this?
160 bucks
For 160 I can buy a new fender. In fact, I can buy 2 fenders. :)
Okay, but what about paint and labor
+Josh427SS you're right. some cars are more expensive than others. But for common cars, you could find the right color fender and its only a few bolts to take it off.
DAIadvisor
Even though the car might share the same paint code, it might wear down differently and be completely noticeable
Love this guy! Thanks for being an awesome teacher!
Hi Scott, just a question with coolant, can I just add concentrated coolant and measure Sp. gravity of the solution rather than change the whole mixture.
there's always 1 smiling guy at the end of any job done by a Professional ....
i felt scotty was making fun of the guy...
I was not, I just like laughing when for once someone besides me is actually doing the work.
Scotty Kilmer I have the same problem (is it a problem though?) and sometimes people think I laugh at them but I do not. Just way too smiley everytime
scotty kilmer is ALLRIGHT!
Hello Scotty how do you fix the linkage on 350 rocket 1980 cutlass supreme can't shift down to 1 gear stops at drive
