Ford Paintless Dent Repair Video – Advanced PDR Training

When it comes to performing paintless dent repair and door ding removal – some of you may or may not know, Ford sheet metal is very tough to work with compared to other car manufactures. Why? I don’t have a solid answer I can give so this is pure speculation. It’s definitely springy and has a lot of memory. Meaning when you push on the dent, it has a lot of resistance. If the pressure is not released correctly, you won’t have a lot fun for sure.

The dent I did in this video took me just under 6 1/2 hours. Yes I used heat and a lot. I didn’t explain much because I am also using the footage for a more detailed explained dvd video I will be selling in the future. There is a lot of detail I did not show on purpose but enough to demonstrate it wasn’t easy. Now did the dent come out 100%? No. Not even. How much do I think it did? About 90-95%. To a general retail customer it would seem just about perfect. Why couldn’t I get it 100%? Well for one thing it had cracked / split paint on the inside of the dent near the edge. I had to me so careful not to induce more splitting by pushing too much. This was the main reason for using a heat too.

I can’t always tell if I can get a dent out or not but I can for sure always try.

Mercedes Benz Crease Dent Repair

Had a little challenge today and as always, wasn’t sure if I could pull it off. I had to perform another crazy paintless dent removal on the body line of a Mercedes Benz ML in San Diego.

Thing about silver cars is when it has a deep dent like this, in most cases the metallic separates and looks white. I call it “ghosting” which can be somewhat unpleasing, especially after you have spent so much time removing the lion share of the dent. But I can’t lie, it did ghost on me a bit. Here’s a little tip on how to get rid of it: color sand (wet sand) after you remove the dent. Believe it or not, it helps remove 75% or more of the ghosting.

I also have been using my new toy (sticky pod mount) to get some good angles. You won’t tell from my iPhone videos because I shot it using my Canon Vixia which I am going to cut a video in HD about the process later.

Anyhow check out the videos and photos how it went.
