Episode Description from the Publisher

Fog or lines — which is the better way to see and repair dents with PDR?In Episode 35 of PDR Universe, Žan Vidic and Zeeshan compare PDR fog lights and line boards and explain how each system helps technicians read dents, locate tool tips and control the metal during a paintless dent repair.We discuss why lines may initially be easier for beginners to understand, why we prefer fog for fine finishing and paint texture, how natural reflection can be used to check finished repairs, and why experienced technicians can achieve excellent results with either method.We also cover PDR light selection, damage inspection, hail repair, line thickness, light positioning, Stucky lights, and what beginners should consider when buying their first PDR light.If you're learning paintless dent repair and trying to decide between fog and lines, this episode gives you two experienced technicians' perspectives on the advantages and limitations of both systems.PDR training:https://bestpdrtraining.com
