"Learning the "Highs and Lows" — Master the Art of the PDR Pushs"

At TriStatePDR Training, we break dent repair down to its purest form using our signature "1-to-FIVE" process — a step-by-step system designed to train your hand-eye coordination and build muscle memory through focused repetition.

Through slow, exaggerated movements, fun applications of core techniques, and real-time feedback, you’ll train your brain to execute clean, precise pushes — every time. You'll learn how to properly read reflection boards, locate your tool tip with confidence, and master the layered mechanics of a perfect PDR "push."

From the first day, you’ll be making real repairs — early and often — as each skill builds on the last. More importantly, we’ll give you the insight, mindset, and habits it takes to rise to elite technician status... and the discipline to stay there.

All trainees receive
* Starter set of essential tool
* Accessories and training aids
* Exclusive instructional DVDs
Your journey to PDR excellence begins here — and the answer lies within TriStatePDR Training.

  Learning the “Smiles” — Reignite Your PDR Potential

Many trained PDR technicians hit a plateau — that moment when finishing a repair to factory condition becomes a consistent struggle. If you're finding it difficult to deliver flawless results or feel your confidence slipping, it may be time to reset. What you need isn’t just an advanced course — you need a complete reinforcement of the fundamentals that drive success in this industry.

At TriStatePDR Training, we specialize in rebuilding your foundation and helping you push past those limits. We’ll guide you through the techniques needed to finish the repair — clean, precise, and with confidence.

In addition, our training puts a strong emphasis on Glue Pulling (GPDR). As one of the fastest-evolving techniques in the PDR world, GPDR is now essential for handling today’s complex repairs. We offer comprehensive, hands-on instruction in glue pulling, equipping you with the tools and know-how to make it a valuable part of your skill set.

Flexible Training Options: Hourly, Daily, and Weekly Sessions Available.

Let us help you bring back the confidence — and the smiles — in every repair.

"Access at your finger tips"

Over the past 25 years in the auto reconditioning industry, we’ve heard one question time and time again from clients: "How can I learn this? How can I add this to my team’s skill set?"

From painters and body techs to mechanics and shop owners — many are eager to bring PDR in-house. That’s exactly why we created our focused training program. At TriStatePDR Training, we keep it simple and powerful: our only goal is to teach you how to repair a dent — the right way.

Instead of relying on an outside technician for every small dent, imagine having that skill available anytime, right within your own team. Our 5-Day course is designed for small groups (4 trainees max) and our 8-Day course is designed for 1 to 2 trainees, allowing for hands-on, personalized instruction that builds lasting results.
