Tank dent fix?
« on: August 03, 2017, 03:45:57 PM »
Got a dine size dent and can't find anyone that can fix it for me in the Portland area.  Any thoughts?

Whatever is done will require some body work after. I suggest just sand down, bondo, paint.

Yeah, that is what I was thinking as well.  I called around and nobody wants to touch it..  It done't have to be perfect so I can give it a shot.

It won't require filler. It's a shallow, uncreased dent. Any decent PDR (Paintless Dent Removal) guy can fix it. Search the local car dealerships or local Google for PDR or Dent Repair.

Done dozens of them with no evidence of repairs.

That is what I thought and called 3 that said they do not do motorcycles tanks.  I might try a few move and see what they say before going the bondo route.

Buy one of the cheap puller kits and DIY. I use banggood.com some. I'm sure there are others too.
