Chris, you exceed everyone’s expectations on I’m sure every dent. What people don’t know is how easy this Dent would’ve been without the Bondo you were struggling the whole time without wanting to fracture paint or make some flaky weird push that would crack some weird bondo crack. Dude this repair was phenomenal and I’m glad you shared it. I try to share everything and I have personally taking on some bigger jobs lately. With the help of that get a grip tool and the umbrella I’m rockin. Thanks so much for your work and everything you do it all pays off in the end. Garth Peterson PDR
@@catfisher420 catfisher420 the mud don't have to be directly in the area hit. If its just outside the area 3-6 inches or even up to 8-12 inches the metal around it reacts different as the mud absorbs the vibrations which is essentially what is required to move metal when striking it.
Yes and that they over charge for. Most cases u can buy a already painted part from a salvage yard OR actually get it painted YES painted for what these guys charge! Its ridiculous.
I remember a few years ago a car show we have in the UK called top gear, they visited one of the luxury car companies, it was Aston Martin, or Rolls Royce or whatever, and they spoke to this old guy who was a panel beater. The camera panned down and looked right along a door panel, and it was like a sheet of glass! Then this old guy pulls a marker out of his pocket and circles all these low spots and you're like what?? Are you kidding?? Mad skills! :-)
We just had a guy do 2 truck beds where I work, first one was very minor, he was done in about 20 minutes, it looked pretty good but there was evidence that there was work done and he didn’t clean the area he worked on, the second truck had a small crease about 7 inches long and a small dent, he was finished in less than an hour, for the most part the dent is gone but you can see damage from the crease and like the first truck he didn’t clean the area he worked on. He didn’t do the fine hammering that was done in this video. He didn’t use a puller or anything other than pry bars to push on the dent and punch that he used sparingly. There was a third truck with a dent about this size from the video without any creased areas and he said he couldn’t do it because it was too big. This video was awesome and the dedication is very evident to be a master at your skill, BZ, job well done
Never be afraid to price the job "right".... Quality work, with backup videos = "Right Money".... Nice job! You can work on my car any day... I'm retired now, 45 years in the business.
You are an extremely patience person, and I think that virtude is vital for doing such beautiful work. You are an incredible artist. Thank you for this video. Your friend from Puerto Rico, Edwin Oliveras
the bodyshop I worked for as my first job was awesome. The main guy used to stomp on to crush up soda cans during lunch time and then get every single wrinkle and crease out for fun!! Great work man! Keep it up!! This is the real way to do it!!
Appreciate the video. I'm guessing many other people came to this video with no knowledge at all of PDR. I'd recommend for future videos giving an explanation on why you're doing things such as hammering around the edges and explaining which tools you decided to go with and why. Excellent job though. Came out great!
Love seeing professional workmen doing their job and overcoming difficulties that arise,I fully believe that it's how you react to problems that define who you are, I was in construction and when I walked onto a site and there was a problem I said it's happened so let's try and fix the problem, I used to get very cross and angry about other people's mistakes and having to go and fix their errors,perhaps I was to much of a perfectionist, but then I realised right it's happened let's fix it and I became a calmer person still prone to outbursts at times but that was because of others laziness,so watching this reminded me to take a break and return with a different mindset, top class work well impressed with your attitude
Wow. Well done! Truly skilled art work. Beautiful to see some people still take pride in elevating their skills to this high of a level! I hope I can find someone half as good as you to do a repair I need.
You nailed it. A lot of people just do mediocre work in any profession. problem with that is you don’t learn and your missing out on your true potential.
Metal GuitarSolid I have auto body repair in my background. Could you have fixed this without body filler?? I could not have and never would have thought it was possible. And no I'm not a bondo nut. Just never seen anything like that done before. I'f its for real it is nothing short of amazing!!
I've got to give it to you, that is a great job you did. Patience and persistence is what it takes and you have both. You'd have my business for sure..
Your a regular friggin artist that's some serious talent right there !!!!! I was always jealous of my one brother he was a very talented artist , did some beautiful paintings, he just had that keen eye like you
Saw the title thought to myself that's a big ask to repair prep n paint in 7 hrs an I've got 23 yrs body shop experience I'm very impressed u have the skills to pay the bills sir
I have a window tint company and I've seen a bunch of PDR guys over the years. I have to say that this was an impressive job, especially having to work around someone else's repaint. Nice job man.
*Great repair Chris* !! Sometimes these *large damage repairs* that take several hours can seem like there is no end in sight. You mentioned there being mud in the panel from the previous repaint. It would have been interesting to see a paint depth gauge show how thick it was. I've run into similar repairs and sometimes I think it also could be a heavy primer or just how much extra paint is on the vehicle. that makes these difficult to push up like normal.
Wow man... I've heard dent removal guys can do stuff that is out of this world and you just proved it. Having a wall dent removed tomorrow and was curious how it's done. We'll done!
Wow I thought they were going to show drilling it and using a slide hammer to pop it mostly out then sanding it down and using bondo to fill it, but no using just what you did I wouldn't believe it if it wasn't filmed, amazing work
Body shops don't drill them to pull dents anymore. They weld on a stud and pull it then grind off the stud. No holes to fill and no stretched out holes to hammer back down. I tried PDR. I'm not that talented or patient. It took a long time and still needed hammer and dolly work before bondo.
You stayed with it and conquered. I've watched a bunch of these dent videos all over RUclips, finding those stress spots has gotta be difficult, nice work.
I can see that you need patience,perserverence and determination to achieve a quality top job but unfortunately i don't have all 3 of them.Thankyou for your great work.
If this is an example of your typical work, then WOW! You have an amazing talent. I've always been amazed by paintless dent repair, but what you did was seriously several levels beyond what I've seen before. I hope you are well paid!!
I just bought a 55 international pickup, it has a dent just about where this one is and it’s a round fender, I just used a hammer and some boiling water and it looked like there was never a dent. But to add to ur comment they don’t make em like they used to
@@noblebrown7533 Yep.. I have a '52 Dodge Pick-up and there's probably more real steel in one fender than in the whole of that truck. So lightweight these days that most panels are glued on and not welded.
At first I was going to criticize you, since I work in a bodyshop and I know what it takes to fix that dent. Good thing I didn't and waited until the end, and man you are good at it. Great job
ZachBilly 123 because there’s always those that have nothing better to do than to criticize and share how they’re doing it all wrong, but the end results will shut them right up!
I didn’t realize PDR had so many tools at their disposal. I watched because the RUclips alogorithm was begging me to. I expected to be disappointed, but I ended up leaving a big TU. I’m still a little skeptical though. I doubt anyone in my area is half as good as this guy!
ART! This is total art, all on its own. So much patience and concentration involved, resulting in UNBELIEVABLE results. Things are getting fixed and straightened today that we could not have dreamed of, as recently as the early 2000’s. Excellent work!
Had TWO large dents like this on a similar vehicle. removed them in 20 seconds and for a few bucks. Dont underestimate the results you can get with hot soapy water and a common rubber toilet PLUNGER (brand new).. worked a Charm, !!! restored it to perfection.

Awesome job. It goes to show how this the metal is, that it can move like that and not kink it stretch. And for the clear coat to give without cracking on a panel that's not supposed to move, unlike a plastic bumper cover. Had it been twenty years ago, or more, you wouldn't have been able to do that, especially on a body line. I've done box sides in seven hours, on 90's pickups, back when I worked in a body shop.
I’m in high school and do the auto body program on campus and videos like this are what make me wanna do it.. it’s so sick to see the panel change and the art that is dent removal! Inspirational sir very inspirational!
On the 19 and up Rams, the thin metal can be pulled,but it has a memory that pulls it right back. All I can figure is a brace behind it to keep it in place. Thinking about pvc pipe with a T on the dent inside. The darn thing looked like a piece of cake to push out. Mine was brand new. I rolled into my wife's back bumper and got a big dent. No paint damage. Man, he does beautiful work.
I really really like that in most of your videos you use the dent dials alot. Just watching your videos i get to learn how to use dent dials more than Sal himself released on his channels about his products. To make it worse he just removed most of his videos about dent dials. How upset i feel spending over 2000 dollars on dent dial products and when i wanted to watch his videos to learn how to use them he simply removed them all !!!!!! Thank you Chris. Big time
Outstanding job ! It takes lots of patience in manipulating them panels to reverse the collision. I know because I've tried it many times and often make a mess of it. If you're going to take on this trade you must breath it and eat it, day in and day out. Practice is the key ! And of course, proper tools...

What would be the cost to repair that dent?
Truly impressive work-kudos
Damn he's good.......
PDR Peterson Dent Repair shout you probably could have use hot water and a plunger to pull that dent out

This is definitely one of those skills that there's an art to it that most people fail to recognize and appreciate. Well done!
Thank you
True!
Yep, Most guys just go straight for the grinder and bondo! This guy is awesome!!
Yes and that they over charge for. Most cases u can buy a already painted part from a salvage yard OR actually get it painted YES painted for what these guys charge! Its ridiculous.
10 cylinders SON you can't buy a bed panel or a quarter panel that just bolts on (facepalm)
7:25 Looks at a panel that 99.9% of people would see nothing wrong with and says "Obviously nowhere near done." That's what you call a craftsman.
Difference between a professional with pride in his work and a hack.

You are a real artist! I have been a welder/fabricator nearly 40 years and I watched this vid with amazement! Thank You!!!
Absolute perfection. I did not think you would get it to that level. You are a craftsman for sure. Keep doing great work. God Bless!

You are a true and rare breed professional simply by just being so detailed and meticulous about your work.
NOT EVERYONE CAN DO THIS KIND OF WORK ....YOU HAVE A RARE TALENT.
Thanks 🙏🏽
Bro I work at a body shop and your skill set is great. Your PDR looks a lot better than what any bondo job could do!
Fantastic job! We need more people like you in the word who actually care for others property.
You are an extremely patience person, and I think that virtude is vital for doing such beautiful work. You are an incredible artist. Thank you for this video. Your friend from Puerto Rico, Edwin Oliveras

You nailed it. A lot of people just do mediocre work in any profession. problem with that is you don’t learn and your missing out on your true potential.
I honestly did not think you could fix that with a prior bondo fix well done !!!
As a novice DIY PDR guy, I really appreciate your videos and how you walk us through your projects. Awesome stuff, I learn so much. Thank you sir :)
I appreciate that!
i know nothing about body work, really amazing to watch. 8:57 is a real good demonstration of what's at work here, awesome.
Wow Chris ! You got Mad-Skills !! Thanks for sharing
Holy shit. Looks like you put a Brand New rear quarter panel on that truck. Beautiful work. Nice technique...
Thanks guy, I got a dent in the bed of my F-150, got a great paint job and you gave me ideas of tools I could make to do the job without repainting
I've been a bodyman for 26yrs, and I enjoyed this video, well done!

Thanks Shane
Your a regular friggin artist that's some serious talent right there !!!!! I was always jealous of my one brother he was a very talented artist , did some beautiful paintings, he just had that keen eye like you
Chris,
I don't care about the Truck.
You are a very Patient man. And that is a great Value.
Also enjoyed the piano music. thanks.

Wow thats talent bro its like magic
Extremely knowledgeable On how to take dents out!! PDR IS AN ART! I sure as hell wouldn't have the patience to do what they do! Phenomenal job!!!
Wow!! Very impressive. Very good work my friend. You made that look WAY to easy..
I'm glad to see a young brother putting in the work and effort it takes to be successful!!!
You are a stud, what a skill you have! Hopefully a man can make a living and raise a family with that skill. Happy holidays.
Hi Chris,
Great Job man...!!!
As some guys told, you exceed everyone’s expectations...
Quality is your surname...!!!
That's F incredible. I'm continually amazed at what can be accomplished with PDR.
I have a window tint company and I've seen a bunch of PDR guys over the years. I have to say that this was an impressive job, especially having to work around someone else's repaint. Nice job man.

Dude! Your are a miracle worker! Simply amazing!!! Are you sure you arent just a wizard using magic while making it look like your using tools?.?.?.?.
8:58 seeing it from that perspective was great! Really nice work
Incredible work! Props to you on an excellent job, you are a true craftsman.
A true professional with the patience of a saint!
Excellent workmanship, you've learned your trade well.
I have been a bodyman since 1975 always used bondo filler and paint. My hat is off to you great work! Ii do not say that often,
Thanks William
Dude, you're an artist. Outstanding work! Best wishes to you and take care.
It doesn’t make sense for him to take a job like that unless customer is willing to pay $1k+
He must do it for the likes.
Did anyone say how good this young man is!!! Awesome job!! I use pdr guys and none compare!!! GREAT JOB!!
WELL DONE! PATIENCE AND PERSEVERANCE!

The trick is shrinking the metal. Anyone can pull out a dent and have a streched raised metal. One of the best repairs yet.
Amazing work, taught me that you don’t have to sand and paint every dent.
I thought I was patient! You are the KING of patience. Keep up the quality work and dedication to your craft.
You are a very impressive Craftsman Chris! Just Amazing.
You stayed with it and conquered. I've watched a bunch of these dent videos all over RUclips, finding those stress spots has gotta be difficult, nice work.

Brilliant job..... i would have been happy with it at 1.5 hours🤣🤣🤣
You are fantastic.... best wishes from Rome Italy🇬🇧🇬🇧
Superb, wouldn't get that good a job if you body shopped it with major repair work, looks really good. You put a lot of effort in. Job for life.

video done in reverse, its toooo good!!! Great job man :-)
lol thanks!
Every job you do is nothing short of miraculous! If I didn't watch you do this I would swear it was done by a body shop. Keep up the specacular work!
Quick question how much would something like this cost do you charge by the hour or by the job just trying to get an estimate on repair rates
Each major dent depending on quality of work will be around $100-200
Should be $400
A true artist at work....amazing how it's done....quality....
You are extremely talented. Wow looks amazing.
Great job! I’m a body man myself! Amazing to see someone so talented at paintless dent repair

This is awesome work. Guys in the bodyshop struggle to get dents like this straight. Unreal!
Awesome job. It goes to show how this the metal is, that it can move like that and not kink it stretch. And for the clear coat to give without cracking on a panel that's not supposed to move, unlike a plastic bumper cover.

Kevin Yancey just curious but did you do them without any body filler?? That was just to good to be true....
GREAT JOB!!!
now I know for sure I don't have the patients it takes to do my own repairs
I'll take it to your shop next
I have seen this done on smaller jobs and it was incredible. Your large dent came out just as well. Keep up the good work.

Chris you are absolutely an artist of the first order.
awesome job! congrats, you are a very good professional .
On the 19 and up Rams, the thin metal can be pulled,but it has a memory that pulls it right back.
All I can figure is a brace behind it to keep it in place.
Thinking about pvc pipe with a T on the dent inside.
The darn thing looked like a piece of cake to push out.
Mine was brand new. I rolled into my wife's back bumper and got a big dent.
No paint damage.
Man, he does beautiful work.
I'm amazed, great job! You now have a new subscriber
I love auto body as a hobby but paintless is a whole new world, more of an art! Just unreal how easy you make it look! Nice work.
Lol at least 3 times I was like, "oh dang nice work! Oh wait ... you're not done?" That was a helluva job man.
Bravo sir. Hard work, drive and determination. Your work is superb!
That Was Excellent Job Bro!!!!!..
