Today, Jack from Sioux Falls Dent Repair will be taking on a huge dent repair on a 2015 Ford Edge. The dent is on the back liftgate below the license plate and runs through a body line in the back as well. There is also some minor paint damage that the customer was made aware of. Jack says that this is the perfect example of what PDR is all about and how much damage it can actually take out without having to repaint anything. Unlike a body shop, through the PDR method, Jack was able to take out the dent in about one day. Luckily, the customer brought the car in just after having it washed which made the repair process even faster.

Jack goes on to explain that there are certain OEM guidelines that have to be followed when dealing with any repair process. This vehicle, being a Ford, Jack had to run a pre-scan to ensure that he knew what was damaged before he could start working on it. To fix the dent on the liftgate, Jack has to remove the trim panel and disconnect the battery and explains why it is important to do a pre-scan in such cases. A pre-scan lets technicians know what is working and what is not before they start working on it so that they can either put it back the way it was or inform the owner and get it fixed (if possible). After Jack completed the pre-scan, he was greeted with 4 different codes – only for the area that he was going to be working on.

Today, we’re going to be looking at one of the PDR tools that was posted on the Instagram feed and we got a lot of questions about.

The tool itself can be separated into the handle and the main component called the Tequila Door Lord from Anson PDR. They are available in four (4) different sizes and do originally come with ratchet handles, however, the upgraded handle we use is a lot more comfortable and easier to work with.

The handle we use is called the Guerrilla Grip which is also from Anson PDR but was initially made by John Highly. It is a “T” handle design but can be disconnected and assembled as a longer handle if needed. Anson PDR does have other designs including a longer handle that comes fitted with a rubber ball at the end. The first time I got to use this handle was at the Dent Olympics Training Event this year at MTE. I actually used the Door Lord on the Mazda repair and people were asking me about it.
