Personal Instruction
The Ding King offers Paintless Dent Repair classroom instruction as well as highly personalized hands-on training working on stationary hoods, cars and trucks. Class sizes are small and highly personal to teach you the most in the shortest period of time. As with all Ding King training classes, students will learn to repair a variety of damage.
Exclusive Process
The Ding King approach to training paintless dent repair is hands-on and utilizes “proprietary processes.” Whether a student prefers learning by the Pressure and Release Process (PARP) or the Drag and Push Process (DAPP), Ding King instructors adapt to each student’s comfort. The Ding King utilizes proprietary methods for accessing dents without having to drill. The NO-DRILLING process, exclusive to Ding King, offers a “leg-up” on your competition.
How PDR Works
Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) is the “art” of removing dents and dings from automobile sheet metal with the use of specially designed tools. By gaining access to the inside skin of the metal, gentle pressure is applied until the dent is removed. Because PDR works from behind the vehicle’s damage, no sanding, painting or body fillers are required. When repairs are completed, there should be no evidence a dent was ever there.
Structured Curriculum
The Ding King Paintless Dent Repair Training Institute teaches students step-by-step how to remove small dents on top and side panels, and how to tackle more elaborate repairs such as hail damage, large dents and vertical and horizontal crease dents. In addition, students learn advanced techniques for removing more complex damage on all areas of the vehicle, both foreign and domestic. Tool selection, access, brace configurations and the inner workings of side panels are taught in great detail. An important part of the program is for you to be fully comfortable using all the tools and understanding how to use both the dent light and portable dent board so that you have the confidence required.
Hail Repair
The Ding King will teach you all the details associated with becoming a Hail Repair Specialist. We’ve trained hundreds of technicians who have gone on to become highly skilled professionals working at all levels of the industry. At The Ding King, you’ll learn everything required to become a quality PDR technician.
Insurance Approval
Every year, all around the world, intense hail storms occur, leaving vehicles with quarter size to golf ball sized dents on all panels of the car. As a result, insurance companies worldwide have determined that Paintless Dent Repair is not only a “Viable Alternative” to traditional auto body repair; it is the “Preferred Method” of repair.
