When I started using glue to pull out dents I was using just some regular glue from store. It worked. There are now much better and different formulas of hot glue that are just for paintless dent repair. They are made for different temps and pulling power.
I'm at the point where the PDR glue has left a thin see-through residue on my car. Will this still work with alcohol soaks and using a rubber or plastic spatula? I really want to avoid rubbing the residue off with a cloth or a tissue. I find that using a hair blow dryer has made it worse and spread over more surface
If all else fails, I’d add a heavier glue layer that encompasses the bits…then use this proper removal method after its fully set…use lots of alcohol. I’d imagine that would pick up all the bits as they will melt into the fresh glue🤔
Thank you for making this video. I did the exact thing I spent $100 on Amazon buying Dent pullers and now I got glue stuck all over my car. And guess what the dancer still there. Cuz as you try to scrape and pull the glue off it pushes the dents back in...Junk Crap!!!
Yes it would. We used to use that or known as denatured alcohol. But because it was more toxic and many would be using it often and getting on their hands. They switched to regular 91% rubbing alcohol.
Good video. I bought one of those kits with the puller and the plastic glue on pullers, and spray alcohol and a separate hammer and punch with plastic ends of different shapes. Yet in spite of all that, generally it's been unsuccessful. It seems the smaller plastic glue pieces just don't have sufficient surface area to have enough glue to allow for a stronger pull. It pops off before it can move the metal. I've seen other videos where they work from the underside first with a metal tool with a plastic end to push the dent up first. Then tap on it to get the higher spots down. The glue seemed to be more successful with larger dents where you could put like a one or two inch plastic part on with a lot more glue. And rather than the squeeze and pull tool, they use a manual whacker tool that does a fast yank one time. Probably more effective.
The same method and materials are used to clean the glue off of the tabs. If you are having trouble with the glue sticking to the tabs and want to clean them first. Then you can still use the rubbing alcohol to help remove any residue from the tabs. Also some light sand paper may also help to clean the tab surface for better adhesion.
@@exceldentremoval I thought my car was trashed, but first time and my car looks great in just a few hours work. 20 hail marks gone. I soaked these tabs overnight but glue stays in the ridges, next ones i will buy without ridges. thanks.
Yes, the smooth tabs seem to work better. I've found that you want to remove the glue from the tab right away after using it. Any longer time that it stays on it makes it more difficult to remove. If there is still some bits of glue on the tab. You can still use it again, the additional glue will heat it up and make it easier to remove. OR just use a small pick tool to help get it out of the grooves.
Yes, if not done properly or with glue made for car paint. There can be times where the paint can be damaged. Also wouldn’t recommend hot glue be used on a car that had been repainted. There is much more risk of paint damage or pulling the paint off the car.
I put super glue in the car handle because it was getting loose and now I can't open as it got in between the crevices. I poured acetone but it's not working.
+Lukas Chalat Yes. More for people wanting to know how to remove the hot glue. I did want to test out the new 99% that I got and see how it compared to the 91%.
my bmw badge was falling off, i put to much superglue on it and now its a mess, can i use alchool to remove the excessive glue without damaging the paint? its a pristine car that i saved for more than 5 years to buy it, already when to 2 mechanics that really didnt do paint, but both told me i have to paint the whole front bumper... Im really pissed off with this and know if i find a good painter will help me as paint the whole front of the car its to expensive. right now im looking at either trying the alcool, or nail polish remover, already tried to polish it to remove it for hours and i think i made it worse... because i really dont have the professional polish, just a cheap polish and some wd40... wish somebody would help, the 2 mechanics in 2 differents shops just laugh at me and tried to overprice everything because its a 520d bmw... reality is that i'm a young person with a normal job and cant afford painting the front of the car, does anyone know what i can use without damaging the original paint???
@@krishnasharma774 What worked for me was applying heat from the hair dryer and scraping it with a plastic credit card. At least this was effective on the brand of hot glue from my "Ding King" kit. I would not use anything stronger than a hair dryer out of concern that the paint may be damaged.
I don’t know of any other product that doesn’t have any fumes that would be strong enough to work but also save for car paint. The couple option would be to wear gloves and put the product in a dropper bottle. Very little is needed for the release process to work. The other option would be to use a special PDR glue that is made to not need a release agent. Another way could be just to heat it up slightly and peak off. Though it may become gummy.

is there a particular type of hot glue you use or just any ole hot glue will do the trick?
I usually use the Tab Weld, but also the green glue. You can see them at the link to the amazon shop above.
Thank so can this work on my wig cap to remove glue on my wig cap which one l use ??
Alcohol seems to be the anwser to a lot of problems .
😂
2019: don't get alcohol on your hands, 2020: smother yourself in alcohol ever 2 mins.
Haha!! 🤣
2021: Ban alcohol. I’m offended
Will any hot glue stick work or do you need a specific type for dent removal?
When I started using glue to pull out dents I was using just some regular glue from store. It worked. There are now much better and different formulas of hot glue that are just for paintless dent repair.
They are made for different temps and pulling power.
I could listen to this dude talk all day.
I'm at the point where the PDR glue has left a thin see-through residue on my car. Will this still work with alcohol soaks and using a rubber or plastic spatula? I really want to avoid rubbing the residue off with a cloth or a tissue. I find that using a hair blow dryer has made it worse and spread over more surface
It could possibly be because it is a cheaper glue. Yo may need to try a combination of some heat and the rubbing alcohol to remove it.
If all else fails, I’d add a heavier glue layer that encompasses the bits…then use this proper removal method after its fully set…use lots of alcohol. I’d imagine that would pick up all the bits as they will melt into the fresh glue🤔
would using a heat gun on the stuck on glue be advised to help remove stubborn glue?
Yes. If the glue is hard or brittle. It can help to soften it. Just start slow and don’t overheat the area or it can burn the paint.

Thank You for this info because, no directions provided no surprise from China and no glue removal either.
Yep, there isn't much help with those cheap kits. I've seen many people wonder how to use them or see vehicles with the glue still stuck to the car.
The heat really help good thing I own one
Thanks for the tip

I got a set for sale from a1 tool if you're interested?

You're welcome!
I got quesiton urgent my car have 7 or 8 drops paint oil this points... how remove this not damage paint fábric
If the damage is to the fabric, it might be best to check with a car interior repair company for the best way to remove it.
Wonder if methylated spirits would do the same job?
Yes it would. We used to use that or known as denatured alcohol. But because it was more toxic and many would be using it often and getting on their hands. They switched to regular 91% rubbing alcohol.
Can I use this on plastic surface ?
You can. But I’d test a small spot first before applying the rubbing alcohol. It can discolor or affect the plastic.
@@exceldentremoval noted. Thank you...
Thanks

Can hot glue damage The car's paint work?
Yes, if not done properly or with glue made for car paint. There can be times where the paint can be damaged.
Also wouldn’t recommend hot glue be used on a car that had been repainted. There is much more risk of paint damage or pulling the paint off the car.
I put super glue in the car handle because it was getting loose and now I can't open as it got in between the crevices. I poured acetone but it's not working.
Did you try a sledgehammer? If in doubt, use the really big one.
Mahalo nui loa!!!!
For the begginers :-)
+Lukas Chalat Yes. More for people wanting to know how to remove the hot glue.

did you ever find a solution?
Thank you, alcohol is proper idea
Lol. That's why I'm here.
Truth is, when you open the bottle alcohol will be after while 96% from air moisture.
Acetone
Do NOT tell ppl to use Acetone😒
Acetone compromises your paint at the very least and can remove it. Hence it is used as nail polish REMOVER 🤦🏼♀️
Easiest way to get the glue off is with a regular hair dryer. Comes off easily.

@@SSS-cp1op no to get the hot glue off XD
Use alcohol
7 minute video could be explained in 20 seconds
Is there a product to use that is not alcohol based? I can't touch or breath fumes of alcohol.
I don’t know of any other product that doesn’t have any fumes that would be strong enough to work but also save for car paint.
