Motorcycle Dent Removal - Harley Davidson Sportster Gas Tank Paintless Dent Repair 

This process is an art form it should not be performed by do-it-yourselfers, this was an absolute professional job and it is one of the only three times I've seen someone get this kind of crease out. Your work was flawless and you're definitely an artist. I've been in the restoration business for over 30 years and we have a guy that comes by and does this type of work and he is absolutely amazing and you definitely matched his expertise. Outstanding video.

You did an absolutely incredible job on that !!!!! Wouldn’t have believed you got out all defects had I not seen it

Stephen, thank you again for this repair. I am so glad that I found you before I shipped this tank across country for repair. I know that no one could have done a better job than what you have done for us. I will be sending anyone needing repairs to you. Great job!!

Stephen, you're a master. The dent is one thing but getting that hard crease out was epic!

As a former professional motorcycle mechanic and workshop owner I have never come across such an outstanding restorative work of art as this! Your craftsmanship and determination to do your very best to ensure that your client received workmanship of the very highest standard really shines through in the sheer beauty of this restoration. That you were able to achieve such remarkable results without damaging the original, custom limited edition paintwork is truly outstanding! Its been an absolute pleasure to see a Master at his Craft, thank you for making and sharing your video.

15 years as a body man, off and on for years after and I can tell you that what you did with that tank is amazing. It does seem to get easier when you have that reassurance from the customer that it’s ok if you crack the paint...you can work past the point that you think is safe. Sometimes you win and sometimes not. I’m very impressed.

I had a local shop repair a dent in my tank. This is truly a talent. You guys who do this work are amazing...my hats off to you.

These new sheet metal repair techniques are really amazing. Last year, my car was damaged by hail that was only two months old, and these craftsmen restored it to perfect condition. This is really wonderful. I like !

That is freaking amazing! How the paint was not marred in anyway is amazing

He worked a miracle on that tank!!! Pure genius, No brag, just fact!!!!!

I was a PDR tech firm Dent Wizard years back and later went independent. Did very little work on motorcycles but when you got to the stretched mound I too thought no matter where you go from there it'll never look unnoticeable. That is some fantastic work! The reason I looked this up because my brothers bike tank got dented and I was looking for some quick solutions. He also is an old PDR tech and still has most of his tools. Probably just going to do it PDR method. It's a simple dent with no crease or smiles. Should pop easily. Once again, that's phenomenal repair !

Wow. Incredible. Ive watched a few of these dent repair videos and really am stunned by the results. Ive been in the conventional body repair business for over 40 years. Bravo.

No way , that is an incredible repair. Very impressive work..

This guy is awesome! Just goes to show some things are not impossible. From the beginning of this video i just knew that there was no way that dent would come all the way out. But that tank looked like brand new after he was finished. That is truly incredible. This guy knows his stuff!

That's astonishing! I used to repair tanks for a living and I have never seen anything remotely like this. Truly amazing.

Doing restoration and custom paint for almost 40 years I would have never believed this was possible years ago. What a great way to avoid conventional paint and body work. Amazing.

I'm not any kind of authority but I recognize genius when I see it, you Sir, are a genius.

Amazing! I know body work and painting but I’ve never seen anything like this. Truly a valuable skill.

Yep, I agree with Warren below. I am a custom painter too and I am astonished, you are so talented, patient and impressive. Thanks for sharing a little of your skill. Well done Sir.

Unbelievable best work ever !! Best tank work I have seen in 50 years of Riding...

I work in the industry very specific to this and im seriously impressed that’s a talent sir keep doing it.

Wow! I’ve worked in auto body and it’s usually, remove, replace, paint, and done. But dude, you’re an artist!

I'm ABSOLUTELY Amazed! Bravo!! Your patience and persistence got you the result you deserved!

You did an outstanding job and you should be very proud! All Harley dealers shops should contact you!

Awesome work!! You did a great job with that tank. Cheers

Amazing repair! That thing looked like a goner. Nice save, awesome skills, great video!

I spent 35 years in the car business 15 in wholesale and as a used car manager. Set up thousands of cars and have used mechanics like you in the past.. There are some that are junk to very good. You are in the top 3 I have ever seen......

Impressive craftsmanship. I had a 77 Super Glide with a similar dent, tried the freezing water routine, no workie.. Shame these techniques weren't around back in 77. If they were I never knew or saw it. Good job.

Wow, that's impressive! Great job!!!

Good Lord brother! You're a Craftsman sir.

Always impressed by quality PDR.

I was skeptical about the crease ...... man was I blown away by the result. Well done !!!!!!

Stephen thank you for sharing the honesty moment there when you had all but given up. It would have been easy to gloss over that in this video. Great tutorial & camera work btw 👍

Mad , Mad skills my man !!

That is the best PDR repair I have ever seen. Incredible

The customer was blown away by the results I was blown away by the results....lol

WOW! Just Wow. I would like to see more detail on how you worked the crease and what tools you used to knock it down without damaging the paint. Good Job!

Don't know how this showed up in my feed but, Sir you have the skills and talent.

Dude, I wish I could train for PDR. I worked in Collision Repair since 1975. Retired now. You are very good at what you do. 👍

Great job. I've been around some of these guys. Love how they never actually never let you see the tools or what they are doing.

Wow. You guys are pretty damn awesome!

Trained body shop repair guy like myself can see things !!! But u saved the paint . Good job

plot twist, the after pics were before he purposely dented the tank... just kidding. amazing man, would have never thought that tank would look that good without cutting, welding, grinding and repaint.

I am thoroughly impressed with your work

I DID NOT think that was coming out. WOW!

That’s absolutely incredible. I wish this guy could straighten out my life like that. It’s all dented and stretched out to. I bet that buffer would feel good to.

Yeah, this is A 1 job. Specially taking out that deep cut like crease and bringing it back up to the level where it's impossible to see it had a damage before. You definitely earned props !

The tank looked so bad at the first of the video. I am impressed at what a great job you did on getting those stretched creases out. I used to help paint motorcycle tanks back in the 70’s and I usually had to use filler & repaint. Good job! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

You should pay yourself on the back, that was an amazing job. I've worked on several dented tanks and that's one of the most professional jobs I've ever seen. Cya

It hurts just to watch this video. After over a month of sanding glazing, painting, and top coating my gas tank....i was was working on my bike and it fell over and dented the tank. Can't even describe that much anger.

Now I know where science and art and human effort meet. You are great !

Impressive! Did not expect you to be able to get that crease out, but you did an exceptional job. I have got to remember patience when attempting any job like this one. As you mentioned, it would be easy to throw in the towel on that one. Perseverance pays!

Tank looks amazing great job but I'm still trying to find out why the tank is so expensive

Y'all are master craftsmen. Thanks for the inspiration and keep on trucking!

WOW. A true craftsman and somebody that really cares about his customers and doing a good job.

Skill and patience pays off! Sweet job!

Steve at Dent Hog GA, I saw the Sportster tank, the Special # tank. That guy puts the "T" on Technition. This happened 11yrs ago, but the guy has the skills... MAD skills! He almost quit on the tank but man, he stuck with it and was Victorious. Good work.

Holy hell. You did an absolute amazing job. Well done.

Awesome skills and craftsmanship

Excellent work , a magician at work !

That’s amazing! What an amazing service you offer!

The heat will cut down the life of the clear cote in half, at least. Motorcycles live a easy life, compared to cars. I live in the Rockies, lots of hail. People tried this, because of insurance companies. Most, now just take the money & have the vehicle painted. You definitely did an excellent job! PDR, definitely has its time & place.

That's amazing!! I would've panicked after making that raised dimple. Nice work!

I've been chopping/fabricating custom looks for bikes for some time, and I could have spent a month on this job and not come close to your level of work. Beautiful work, my friend.

You are amazingly talented with PDR!

I'm a body man myself 40 years, that is patients, persistence and insight to see the next push... great job !

Dropping a motorcycle as I have done will dent a tank. Wish I had known somebody that could straighten the metal out on my Super Glide tank. I sold the bike for $800. The new owner parted out the bike and that tank ended up on a shelf in a friends car and bike shop. Probably still there after over 30 years! Nice work!

An all American craftsman. Great job

Guy... thats Awesome. I'm blown away by that. Sweet job. Amazing.

Fantastic job, what a pro. Enjoyed the video and honest commentary.

Holy crap man.... Amazing, beautiful work.

Wonderful work!! That is so great you saved it .

Excellent work, Stephen!!

Awesome work!

thats fantastic man, really good job

Nice PDR job!!!

That’s an excellent repair. Great job!

Good job, and please don’t ever give up!

Amazing! My hats off to you for fixing that one !

Incredible work!

Absolutely amazing, I would have said no way. My hats off to you sir!!!

Beautiful work!

Outstanding job I wouldn't believe it if I didn't see it on video you sir are a craftsman/artist/wizard.👍

I've seen tons of paintless dent repair videos but that one really takes the cake.

WOW, that is a truly amazing repair. Thanks for sharing.

Ur vid caught my eye, sparked my intrest so I watched and I freaking blown away. What a masterful technique! I guess I'm not going to worry too much About those little ding on top of A fender I have. I'm sure somebody in Tucson Arizona can fix it. Way to go man congratulations.

Absolutely beautiful man great job

That was amazing. I was sure the crease was going to put the death-nail into that beautiful tank. Great job. I hope I never have to use your services but if I do I'm calling you.

Awesome work dude

That is ridiculously skilled work! Well done! 👍🏻

Amazing work!

Man , that was a tough one. Super job!!

This is a dieing trade. Many body shops would rather fill it in simply because they dont have a skilled dent man. Taking a dent out of a fender is one thing but going inside a tank like that is amazing.

Amazing job, well done.

Oh wow, you sir have amazing skills!!!🤯

No way!!! I'm stunned about your talent!

Talent! Great job and mastery of your craft!

Rite on dude.... what a great job. Kudos !!!!

Beautiful work! Absolutely beautiful! Good job!

Wow! What a great job! You do great work.
