June 20, 201948: Price of Everything. Value of Nothing
In this episode,

Now a days people know the price of everything and value of nothing.

I condense the truth about paintless dent removal value. Where do you stand? Are you going to practice that PDR had lots of value or ignore that you could help your company and the industry as a whole?

Upcoming event, Keco glue pull seminar. July 11-12 https://www.facebook.com/KECOBodyRepairProducts/

Youtube video giving me flack on charging $425 for an hour.

A breakdown of PDR Cost vs Making a Claim or even paying out of pocket.

PDR

Pros
Saves original paint
Generally under your deductible

Common door dings minor dents performed within hours and sometimes less.

Hail damage repair performed within 1-3 days

No paint mismatch

No carfax

1000 times better than a body shop

Cons.

Could be over your deductible.

Bodyshop / Claim

Cons

79% or higher of these statements below are true if you make a claim over choosing PDR.
Cost will definitely exceed over $500
Your deductible is generally $500 or higher

Likely it will affect your insurance

Expect to be away from your vehicle for 7-10 days (if they are fast)

If you don’t have rental insurance, expect to pay out of pocket $200-$250 @ $25 a day. (that’s the low end)

Your car will now be reported to carfax and have history of body damage

You lose 25% of your cars value when it has been repainted.

Your time is money

Overall, even if PDR was a $100 - $200 more than your deductible, Paintless dent repair is still the fastest, affordable, proven and best method for removing your dents.

By the way, I’ve been perfecting this trade since 1991. Customers don’t owe me for the hour, they owe me for the years.

No painting. No hassle. No brainer.

Choose PDR.

April 25, 2019 41: Year of the PDR Handles and More
It needs to be said. Handles are such a bigger part of the PDR tool than one is aware of. The first thing you do when you grab for a dent tool, is see how the grip and feel of the tool is in your hand.

Hand fatigue if much more serious and we all should be aware of it. Better grip means less effort, more comfort and more control too.

PDR Tool companies haven’t made much more effort since they first began. Some are already pretty good. But what can they do to improve it?

Being in the paintless dent repair tool business demands constant improvement and innovation. It’s time for change or the little guys will be the ones climbing the PDR tool ladder.

Like individual PDR techs (John Highley) has created an overlay or replacement for the standard A1 and Tequila ratchet handles. They are often too small and uncomfortable for a normal PDR techs hand. So with his well made handle, it’ll not only improve the comfort but functionality of the tool even more. Plus more forgiving when it comes to the strain of your wrist and joints.

I go over other little topics and keep this podcast short. Let me know what you think about the handles? Do you think it’s time for change or you happy how most of them feel?
