I used a silicone dough scraper/bowl scraper to remove the glue without chance of scratching - glue came off in one shot every-time. Thank you for giving me the confidence to remove my fridge dents. Great video
Nice! Thank you. Not sure what 26 people saw to give this a thumbs down. People are unbelievable. Home Depot dented our door and Samsung let us keep the frig and refunded us 95% of our purchase price because they can't provide a new door for months. This kit should do it!
@@Donnythelatemodeltech I know what those thumb downs are. There are jerks out there that actually live to thumb down everything. Their lives are so pathetic the only thing that makes them happy is hoping they can hurt the feelings of someone else. What those jerks don't know is even a thumbs down helps your channel. It makes no difference if the thumb is up or down both help your channel equally. So in the end, the pitiful jerks lose after all! This was an awesome video. You really helped me! Thanks so much!
Nice Job!!! I watched another guy on the internet do that to his stainless steel frig and the the part of his dent tool that rests against the refrigerator (not the glued part) made the dent much much worse. I don't have any dents in mine, but I know that panel is over $300.00. That whole paintless dent removal is a bit of an art. I watched a guy do it on a black car with a dent worse than yours and he got it out 100% and black really shows dings. Took him like an hour. One time I set a front door on it side and really dinged up the door knob from the weight (don't ever do that). That know by itself was not available any more. I took a small drill and drilled a hold in the neck of the know where you rally can't see it and pushed 90 percent of the dent out with a nail clamped in a Vicegrips. Since the know was an antique brass and old and rough and not shiny it was a good repair. Again, really nice video!!
Dude, this was a really good video. It was very informative. I have a Samsung refrigerator myself that I just ordered a repair kit for. Your video showed me exactly what I needed to know to repair mine. Thank You
Thanks so much for this! Just moved into our house a few months ago and already dinged up the new fridge 🙄 Bought a similar kit and hopefully am able to do as well as you did!
Wow! I'm super impressed! Excellent tutorial! Thank you so much! I need a new fridge, but the prices with this inflation is making buying a new fridge a real problem. I refuse to use a credit card and go into debt. I found a company with new fridges with scratch and dents, but thought wow, now I have to look at a dent(s). But now, I have hope! I think I can find a new fridge, with dent(s) that I can actually easily repair with good results. I think the key is look for soft dents, like you had, and avoid the dents with metal creased edges or puncture shapes - those have too much metal damage to pull out smooth. Thanks again!
I have three tiny dents in my brand new frig....I just ordered the kit....and I’m going to try it on my metal front door too...why not. Thanks for the video.
The glue would not hold the plastic piece on the dent for more than a couple of minutes. One time it held long enough to attempt a ‘pull’ but when pressure was applied it came off immediately. Disappointed!
Kudos to you, Donny! Great video, very informative. Confirmed my suspicion that the "stainless steel" on these fridge doors is not much thicker than aluminum foil, so caution is a must lest you make the blemish worse. Thank you!
I picked up this kit to try and remove a few dents from the door of the subzero refrigerator, and this thing will not budge the dents in the door. I have to assume there are some different materials or construction over the Samsung. In fact, the plastic pieces that you glue to the door wind up, popping off from the glue and there is still zero improvement. I let the glue set for 8 to 10 minutes before trying to pull
Good instruction. Unfortunately this just did not work for me. Tried about 20 times, various size/shape bits, Tried working it slowly like in the video, tried pulling quick to the point the glue seal broke. Just not getting anywhere.
Great video, I bought the tool but am having some major issues with both of the glue sticks actually sticking to the fridge surface. It pulls off way too easy regardless of which one I use. Any thoughts or tips?
Thanks for the vide. At 5:10 you don't squeeze the trigger all the way. In other videos, people squeeze it all the way and the glue comes off of the refrigerator. Would you explain which one you recommend and why?
Awesome video man, I have two annoying dings on my passenger side door and I’ve been thinking about getting one of these. Problem is my doors aren’t perfectly flat like your refrigerator here. Would this work on a semi curved surface like a door panel?
Can you tell me please how you to determine how much 'pull' pressure to reach by squeezing the mechanism? Is it best to go with real light pressure, remove the pad attachment, examine, and then re-attempt if necessary? Can the attachment tips be reused? Also, before you use soft hammer the smooth the surface, can you use a compact/small leveler to determine how level it is? Your method seems to work better than the hair dryer followed by dry ice or upside-down compressed air I have seen in other YT videos. Did you try that beforehand? Would this other technique work (or be sensible to attempt) once the dent is reduced to minimize it more easily than with the clamp method you used?
@@Donnythelatemodeltech its been a very busy summer and fall...covid has caused me to get extra busy but in a good way...working on the XJ riveting and welding new metal in some places...little bondo...paint...hope it lasts for the kids to drive too :) but I wanna get it back to the Outer Banks beaches again someday...thanks for your videos...always helpful!
Rubbing alcoholic cab ruin some metal finishes. So be careful. Appliances also have clear coatings that can be damaged by the hot glue and or rubbing alcohol
On another video someone did the same thing and said the plastic scraper made some scratches on the steel. Did this happen to you too? The dent in my gar range is right next to the edge, do you think this would work there? Thanks
Dang. I have the quad door, but the panels look like their spun aluminum or something, because it isn’t magnetic. I haven’t looked, but I wonder if there’s a suction cup version instead of the magnet mount.
Thank you so much this was very helpful. Any further tips on choosing the right size adapter? If I choose one that’s not right could it make things worse?
Any idea if this will work on black stainless? I’m reading a lot of comments about glue not sticking so I’m wondering if anyones ever tried this on a black stainless item.
I got the same kit after watching this video and BS! I tried 5X to glue it to my stainless steel refrigerator and one small pull and it comes right off. Not sure what glue your using but its not from this kit.
Let me know if you ever come to Florida. 😁🏖Trying to find someone to fix a clients refrigerator. 1 stupid small dent, hours of problems to deal with. 🙄
I just bought a $2000 fridge. Come home and the missus has put 2 very noticeable dents in the door by letting the door open 180 degrees onto an adjacent door. 😔
😢Thanks Donny, I have an expensive LG Fridge that looks like someone took to it with a ball peen hammer. So disgusting. And so annoyed with LG for using Chinese cheap ass stainless steel. Anyway can't wait to fix my fridge with this kit. Thanks.
Generally, Stainless Steel (SS) appliances cannot be easily dented unless you knocked it real hard. By deign that it cannot be easily dented, it also cannot be easily repaired. A comparison of the SS thermos flask vs the aluminum coke can and you get the idea. Many fridges nowadays may look like SS but are in fact metallic vinyl layer. The "creases" or "dents" on the vinyl layer cannot be fixed satisfactorily with the PDR kit. It may be possible for the PDR to reposition the warped area, giving the impression that it has been repaired. For a permanent repair, the entire vinyl could be replaced. As for real SS appliances, I doubt it could be fixed with PDR kits which are primarily designed for aluminum that is a far softer metal. Normally SS dents could only be repaired using TIG welding and I had seen this done by a professional. There are of course, many other considerations such as material/thickness of the shell and the substrate below it (e.g. fridge could be using a vinyl layer to simulate SS and the door material beneath could be aluminum, iron or plastic). My point is there is really no "one-size fit-all" solution.
I bought the kit and will use it on my front door which is metal...aluminum actually....I want to see the years of renters and movers abuse be lifted from the door now that I own it.
Great vid! How much for this kit and is there a time frame for when the dents occur as to when you can fix them and they become “permanent “? What is the link for this kit?
