Awesome work bro 🤟👍
This was like watching a master craftsman show us his craft. Very educational an interesting to watch
Thanks for watching glad you enjoyed 👍😁🦅
The way you fix a tank is almost the same as me, no many pdr tech want to repair that, but it's always fun to do. Great job.
Thanks for the comment!
Beautiful tank👍 You did a great Job👍👀👍
Was a great looking bike. Thanks!
Patience and skill at work. The tank looks great.
Thank you! 😁😁🦅
Fabulous video Jim! You killed. it.
Thank you Lee! Hope you are wel
Great repair. The problem solving or puzzles as I call it, is one of my favorite parts of what we do.
Turned out great!
Thank you! Yeah this was a fun repair. The problem solving keeps you sharp and the challange is always new!
One doesn't learn this sort of skill overnight. Every scenario is different. What an artisan!
Yes you are spot on. I’m entering my 14th year as a auto body professional. Loving every moment. Thank you for the comment
This was fantastic! I may copy your idea for the tank stand. that's genius
Thank you! Yes it works great for tanks and is inexpensive
What a great job man. Very nice format of your new video. Very inspirational. Thank you
Thank you for your comment glad you enjoyed the video!
Very nice work, what an awesome color combination on that tank.🫵🏼💯🆒👍
Great job, excellent repair. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching! 😁🦅
Nice repair Jim👍, I learned something new, keep up the good work and thank you for sharing 👍🍻
Hey thank you I appreciate the comment 😁🦅
Why did you not show the glue pull? The light thing was in the way
Great question. This is most likely due to my crude camera skills. Filming is tough for me as I’m usually hyper focused on the actual task rather then documenting the process. I hope one day to produce better video content. Have a great day 😁🦅
great job you are very talented amazing how you can fix a dent like that
Thank you for your comment! 😁🦅
Great job. Took my 900rs tank in a few weeks ago for a ding and he shattered the paint and clear. Only upside is I get to paint it the color of my liking lol
That is the nature of the beast. Painted metal can be unforgiving. Heat is key to keeping paint flexible. Thanks for watching and your comment
Like the way you hid how you pulled the dent with the glue tool.
Thanks for the comment as my videos are more of a way to document repair results rather then show all the techniques used. The glue pull process made up the first hour of the repair and the tool work of hammering and pushing was an Additional 3 hours or so. If there was better access points for leverage I would avoid glue as bike paint is thicker leading to paint failure in some cases. This particular dent was located where the vinyl pinstripe was located. This strip is clear coated over and not adhered like paint making this a delicate job. Hope you enjoyed the video and thanks for commenting.

Nice job. Many tanks do have a pretty thick gauge steel and that was a long reach. It came out good!
Hope y’all got through the storm ok. Just realized it went your way.
Hey we were good through the storm as it hit the opposite coast but friends and family suffered . Thank you for the good wishes though
the 2 metal tubes are over flow & breather hose not for fuel lines the fuel line connects to the fuel pump
Thank you for clearing that up!
To me that would be perfect :)
Thanks for the comment!
Whatever you do
DO NOT put compressed air in tank to pop out dent
I found that out the hard way once i did that the bottom of the tank expanded NOT where i was expecting and if wouldn't fit back on the bike LoL
Great comment. It is very dangerous as you risk destroying the tank. No professional uses that sort of method. It is a process of reshaping with rods
very nice my guy
Thank you!
Would have been a great video had you shown the whole process.
Yes perhaps a long format video would be good in the future. Have a nice day
Oh boy do I have some work for you. I will be in touch when I get into town for the Holidays. Hope we can at least have a conversation.
Sure thing I look forward to it. Happy holidays
@@bonesdentrepair696 Well the Holiday sure put a wrinkle in things. Hope we can work it out.
Background music is too loud
I see a few people use a heat gun, is that something you used here? Or do you use a heat gun at all with tank repairs?
Heat is used while performing Paintless Dent Repair to make the paint flexible and prevent cracking the paint
I like your canopy set up! I’m gonna have to copy that.
How much was this repair? I’ve got guys asking me to repair their tanks but haven’t messed with one yet.
I’d suggest joining the mpdr group on Facebook but I generally price using the Moro matrix on mobile tech Rx. Thanks for the comment 🤘🦅
Unbelievable how you artists do this. I watched another guy and he used heat (heat gun) stating the paint would crack without. You did not use heat. Clearly your repair came out beautiful but would you normally use or recommend using heat or is it not required? Thanks!
Great question that was properly answered by the other technician. Heat is used to keep paint flexible to prevent cracking. Depending work conditions and many variables such as type of vehicle,paint material, metal type, depth of damage will determine if I use heat or not. This damage also had a delicate cleared over strip that I was mindful of durning repair process. Every dent is unique and must be accessed properly to ensure the correct approach. Hope this helps.

I'm confused how metal tap downs and hammers don't chip the paint. How does that work?
Great question. I use very precise amount of pressure when using metal tapdowns. You must clean and polish your hammers and knockdowns to ensure safety of the painted surface. It’s a delicate balance to knockdown smooth with no harm.
@@bonesdentrepair696 thank you for the reply!
How hot is too hot heating with the heater ,will it damage pinstripe or transfers , cheers.
General temp range to heat paint making it mailable is 150-200 degrees Fahrenheit. You have to use less heat near decals stripes or emblems. Never glue pull on a stripe emblem or decal. Hope that helps
Jim
@@bonesdentrepair696 perfect info . I could have worded it a bit better . But thankyou.
What should a couple half dollar size dents cost to repair at a shop so I know when I go if they are trying to rob me... no creasing or paint damage either on them btw...
Great question! Most professional companies have adopted a size guid for pricing. General price is 150$ for first inch and 50$ each additional inch. We also add 25-50% for difficulty factors such as aluminum, body line, braces… and so on. Charges for removing trim panels for access also apply. Talking price with no visual context is often misleading. I personally only price in person as it allows me to see all the hidden challenges and make judgment calls as needed. Hope this helps.
Jim
why do you block what you are doing? can't see what you did?
As an amateur videographer I do my best. My videos are to show my clients my quality. This video has had so many views and scheduled repairs as a result
Would you know of anyone who does this type of repairing in Australia & in particular South Australia
Hi thank you for the comment. I personally do not k ow anyone in Australia. I’m sure a google search would help find someone. Best of luck
Jim
Good job very interesting could do without the music
What dent ? 😁
Poof she gone
@@bonesdentrepair696 Impressive !
The gangster rap is too loud. Why cant you guys use bluegrass or jazz?
Most affordable video editing software has limited music to chose from. I try to pick neutral music with upbeat tempos. Hope you enjoyed the repair work. Thank you for the suggestion
@@bonesdentrepair696great video. I know it takes lots and lots of work to put this together. Hate to be critical but I agree the music is frustrating. Most of the viewers probably want to learn from these DIY videos would rather no music so can fully hear you
Just my 2cents and really awesome video otherwise
Well, I guess not so much DIY but I bet most viewers are trying to make it DIY 😀. And when they fail, they can call you.
You hide your your work from us why make the video?
Talk talk too long abd boring.
Thank you for the feedback
Great job 👍🏼
Nice video, what year is that tank/bike it came off. Thanks for the video
