I bet it's a skill that takes ages of practice on old sh1tters though. Wouldn't want to try it myself on my car without a few goes first!

Hi
I bought a PDR kit off Ebay a few months ago.
Tried it on an already dented wing - that was going to be swapped anyway.
It is very hard to do (and I mangaged to add a few more small dents - that came out of the wing from pushing too hard!!!).
With practice it is going to be brilliant.
If you see the results of Dentmaster etc. - it is fantastic what they can do.
Cheers!

Hi
Type "PDR" on Ebay - normally plenty of kits for sale.
Cheers

Before you try it yourself watch the "Father Ted" episode where they try some DIY dent removal! It's hilarious! Also just remember you could finish up with something that looks spookily like the Indian 206 in the ad.

I had a big dent in my door and got it out with by removing the door panel and pushing is out with the back of a teaspoon.

I saw some chavs pulling some dents out their mates Lax Power car with one of those suction cup dent puller things (not the one in the link).

I had a good laugh at their expense...it was a huge scrape...no way could you ever dream of pulling it out without a block of wood and a sledge hammer

dont do it mate, trust me, you will end up making the dent alot worse!!!

I have been training part time as a PDR tec for about 12 months now, I am more or less there, but it takes hours and hours of practice. It looks easy but it isnt.

my job is plastering and everyone says they can do it !!! but most/everyone makes a mess and on a machined part if you make a mess it will stand out and smack you in face

I have started my own company 2 years ago working in the Wilts/Glos area after learning my trade (dent removal) for 11 years with a major japanese car manufacturer.

These suction cup pullers you see for sale will do more damage than good, unless you know how to use them(even then they are no substitute for bars & pulling techniques(paintless ones I may add).
I recently did work on a scooby door & tbh its one of the hardest cars to do work on. So much that I went and bought one!

Do u do any other types of repair work? I have 2 scratches on the roof + small dent, a bumper scuff, key scratch on the bonnet, some small dents. All other mobile repair companies have run away so far
