Hi there. Just subscribed. Great vids. Can you advise a diyer as to a good starter board and where to buy. Thank you.

@LearnPDROnline 3 года назад

Thanks Jonathon, where are you based? Personally I would start with a reflector board as these are much more affordable than full light set up and then when you progress you can upgrade at a later time. If you are in the UK you can get both fog and lined reflector boards options from www.tdntools.com and www.pdrprotools.co.uk

I have been watching a heap of these pdr videos and know a bit about panel beating and car maintenance. So I'm just starting out with this glue pdr instead of buying a heap of rods etc. I also bought a pdr kit from ebay and was gunna wait till I got me a heat gun. And watching this video you pull out a hair dryer so thankyou for that I can start learning my pdr.👍🇦🇺

Thanks mate, just popped by to get the drill on the cold glue. Had a couple of tubs from Ultra Dent a short while, and today a 350z comes in, big soft dent in the RH quarter. Absolutely no access, and I hate drilling ! Been painted too, so avoiding hot glue, the cold should move it though. Thanks again, great to have these resources to help others.

@@LearnPDROnline cheers mate. Polished and iso cleaned, then some heat gun warming on the panel to assist. Worked great, 90% out on first pull. Need some nice metal tabs, the Gexos are big $$$ here, might get some made and chromed. I used a 3" keco round, then flat round Black Plague Gangrene tabs, worked well enough for first time cold gluing. Thanks again.

@awilson2525 3 года назад

Thanks Tom! This was very helpful. In the use of the line board finding crowns. I have been working with using a slapper to bring those crowns down. Sometimes it works well, sometimes not. I made a rubber padded paddle I use for a slapper with a soft faced hammer. Have you experience with that?

@LearnPDROnline 3 года назад

Thanks Allen, I've had some success with slapper tools, I'm probably quicker and more accurate working with a knock down like the Cro Carb or with a blending hammer and a soft domed tip particularly with smaller crowns but this would be time consuming with the larger ones. I'm sure if I practiced more with the slappers I'd get quicker :) With your rubber padded paddle are you resting this against the panel and hitting with a hammer or using the paddle as a hammer itself?

@franciscoramos226 3 года назад

Great job as always, Tom. I've used cold glue to reduce the dent area and even remove the dent on repainted panels. Cold glue pulls aren't as strong as hot glue pulls and damages on the paint are avoided. Heat is needed, of course. I've had no problems in those repairs with Cola Fria. Have you tried that repair with Glexo?

@LearnPDROnline 3 года назад

Thanks Francisco! I've used cold glue a few times now on a few different repairs and yes it is ideal for a softer pull to reduce the risks of damaging the paint and also reduce overpulling the panel but not yet tried on repainted panels. I've only tried Glexo myself but I know there are a few others out there

@franciscoramos226 3 года назад

Thanks Tom!

@Djazul3 2 года назад

Thank you it was very useful question before you used the cold glue you have to wait 10 to 15 minutes of what I didn’t understand what we’re supposed to wait for?

@LearnPDROnline 2 года назад

Thanks Celeste, The very first time you use Glexo cold glue you have to set it up to the tab, this is pretty simple and the instructions are with the kit, taking the time to work the glue at the right temperature so it adheres to the tab, once set up is done, its ready to go and every time you use it there after its ready, just needs a little warming up to help adhesion

@jeffjastro 2 года назад

Thank you - just subscribed. What is your opinion on cold glue (as you show here) vice hot glue for something like this? I have a hot melt glue that I have used for many projects (but never for dent removal). Thank you.

@LearnPDROnline 2 года назад

Thanks for your question and for subscribing, I used to think it was either or but having both hot and cold glue for your PDR repairs is great as they both serve a different purpose, before I had cold glue I would do what's known as a 'wet' pull with the hot glue, this is when you pull early before the glue has hardened and it has a similar 'softer' effect like the cold glue but now for large soft dents my go to is the cold glue, when you get used to it it is very quick to work with, by the time my hot glue gun is hot Ive already removed half the dent with the cold set up and the clean up time is also reduced. However cold glue has its limits, for smaller, sharper or deeper dents its hot glue all the way for a stronger more precise pull. Hope that helps :)

@sdkhx 2 года назад

Seen so many sliding hammers for sale. Any links for a decent one to purchase and the cold glue? Thank you. Great video!

@LearnPDROnline 2 года назад

Hi Mike, yes there are so many options out there, weight is one of the main things to consider, its good to have a light weight one as well as a heavier one but some slide hammers come with changeable weight handles such as this one from BLE - bletools.com/collections/pullers/products/aluminium-dent-puller-with-spring-dampening Otherwise you can always trust in TDN Tools aka Keco UK

@pips2000uk 3 года назад

Hi Tom, What are you using to heat the panel, is it a standard heat gun or hairdryer?

@LearnPDROnline 3 года назад

Hi Barry, yes in this video I am using a standard hair dryer but you can of course use either... If using a heat gun just keep an eye on the temperature and how close it is so as not to burn the paint 👍🏻

Looks good and a few dent techs Ben mentioning it.

Its good stuff.

@Ylikuluttaja 3 года назад

Hey. I'm new to this area and would like to learn more about the use of cold glue. It is a little difficult to get advice here in Finland. I developed my own cold glue and would like to get feedback on it. Maybe I could shoot a short video. Based on that, you may be able to evaluate the product. You cannot buy cold glue from Finland. It would be handy if I had managed to make my own. At least it feels pretty good in use.

@LearnPDROnline 3 года назад

Welcome to the world of PDR Ju ha, I have heard of a few people making their own versions of cold glue, as long as the paintwork is protected and you can get good adhesion for the pulling process it works. I believe Glexo is a Russian product so just across the border from Finland - glexotools.com/ and also available from Dent tool company - ://www.denttoolcompany.nl/en/

@handyishrandyish334 3 года назад

How do you decide where to start first on a dent like that

@LearnPDROnline 3 года назад

The short answer, experience... but it begins with a lot of trial and error, having an understanding of 'metal flow' will help you determine where the tension is, which parts are shallow and which areas are most likely to respond with a particular repair method, You can usually feel by hand which areas of a large dent are 'soft' ie have some movement and which areas are 'hard' build up of tension, so its about releasing tension to allow the metal to move easily!

@tomchapman4826 Год назад

That's an easy one for obvious reasons. Can u illustrate the same size dent on a flat area?

@LearnPDROnline Год назад

Hey Tom, usually people find its harder fixing dent damage on curved panels like this, flat areas are usually more straightforward, do you mean the same dent again on something like a flat roof or middle of a door?

@tomchapman4826 Год назад

@@LearnPDROnline to me flat shows more to the trained eye. I'm mostly asking in reference to adhesive ability. Flat doesn't pop back like that.

@LearnPDROnline Год назад

@@tomchapman4826 In terms of adhesion it makes no difference on the shape of the panel in my experience, so if the panel is clean and prepped correctly the cold glue will stick. Large soft dents like in this video will come out with some good pulls in the right place, its great for reducing larger dents quickly. I find its the smaller sharper dents or creases that don't work so well with cold glue, that's when I'll switch to hot glue or work with tools from behind. I mostly use cold glue for small soft dents on roof rails where I can usually fully remove with the cold glue alone or for reducing large damage quickly.

The very first time you use cold glue you may need to allow around 10 minutes for the cold glue to adhere to the metal tab, after this first time, you will only need to warm the glue slightly either by hand pushing and folding the glue or with a heat gun, just enough to make it really nice and sticky!
