paintless dent repair reflection board
The PDR Line BoardIf you have been seeing lately the line board on youtube or other pdr companies websites, then you’ll start to notice even more. The line board light and non lighted board is getting much attention around the world. Although learning the lines is usually considered more complex to master. But once mastered, the line board is considered to help give the a pdr technician a big advantage for finishing.
The line board casts a reflection across the dent or ding. While looking at the dent with the lines across the dent, you’ll notice the curvature. This curature has two distinct characteristics; high (pinched, skinny lines), and low (fat lines). The high spots indicate the dent is going outward or have a crown of some sort. The low fat lines indicate where to apply pressure with a tool.
There are a lot of paintless dent repair technicians exploring different methods, techniques and tools to help them achieve better and more consistent results. We’re not saying the line board is the best at all. But our point is, try to have an open mind and become a more well ronded pdr tech. We believe the more you want to learn, the more you grow.

We decided to create a more bigger and wider line board for the active mobile dent tech. This 2 foot line board will help a technician see more of the dents at one time but yet still have the convenience of being light weight. Not only is it just a line board but a line board cover to place over a 2 foot light! Use it on a lock line or use it on your light. Simple and your choice. Look out for it to hit the product line this week.
