PAINTLESS DENT REMOVAL TRAINING MYTHS
Myth #1. PDR is easy.
I always hear this one..”I had my car fixed last week and it looked so easy, so I want to get some tools and do my own dents on my benz..”
Huh? Are you I N S A N E!? You WILL crack your paint, you WILL ruin the dent, and you WILL be sorry!.
Paintless Dent REmoval is an ART.
Myth #2. Paintless Dent Removal must be learned over a period or weeks or months.
False. IF you are stuck in an auditorium style class and the “instructor” is teaching from the podium, then yes, plan on attending for a few months. IF you are getting one on one attention from a pro who knows people, knows PDR and knows how to make people shine, figure 1-2 weeks max.
Myth #3. You will only need a few tools to do PDR.
Yeah right. All the makes, all the models, all the years, and only a few tools will reach all the panels and locations? Think again. More tools, more options, more success. Common sense here, people. Try and look at why those people are pushing the few tool option on you…maybe they buy the tools and are a reseller, and as such the costs are high, so in order to offset the pain for you, they tell you only to buy a few tools, hey , the pro’s rely on only a few tools, shouldnt you?
Wrong. The pro’s have favorites, but they use dozens..probably over 70 tools. Most pro’s have 2-3 complete sets. So, ask yourself again-more tools bad? No.,more tools =GOOD.

Myth #4. Certified Paintless Dent Removal is best.
Well, this one is great. Marketers have had a field day manipulating the unsuspecting public with the “certified” moniker. Even used car dealers have loved this term and used it to oblivion, and yes, the public follows and buys into it.
Certified-is that some sort of industry recognized term? No. do insurance companies recognize a school or student as certified? No. So what does certified mean if there is no agency or governing body issuing a certification?
Answer: Nothing.
There is no such thing as a Paintless Dent Repair Certification.
And there are more Paintless Dent Removal Myths, but for now, we will leave you with these!
Happy pushing!
