Cars are more than just modes of transportation; they are our prized possessions. A dent or ding on the pristine surface of your car can be very disheartening. Enter the art and science of Paintless Dent Removal (PDR), a technique that addresses such dents without compromising the original finish. In this blog, we’ll take a closer look at the tools used in Paintless Dent Removal.
Dent Removal Bars:
At the heart of Paintless Dent Removal are specially designed bars. These bars come in various shapes and sizes, each tailored to address specific dent configurations. The bars provide the necessary leverage and precision required to gently massage the dent back into its original form.
Glue Pulling Kits:
For dents in areas that are difficult to reach with traditional bars, what may be used instead are glue pulling kits. These kits consist of specialised tabs and hot glue guns. The technician applies hot glue to the tab, then places it on the dent, and then uses pulling tools to gradually lift and reshape the damaged area.
PDR Lights:
Precision is key in paintless dent removal, and proper lighting is crucial for achieving it. PDR lights, often equipped with adjustable brightness and colour temperature settings, illuminate the dent area, highlighting imperfections and allowing technicians to execute their work with accuracy.
PDR Hammers and Knockdowns:
When dealing with more severe dents, we use hammers and knockdowns specifically designed for this purpose. These tools aid in the careful reshaping of the metal, working from both the inside and outside of the panel.
Door Panel Removal Tools:
Some dents may be located behind door panels or other components. Door panel removal tools enable us to access these hard-to-reach areas without causing damage to the surrounding parts.
