MAGNETIC DENT REMOVAL

THE MAGNETIC DENT REMOVAL SYSTEM (MDRS)

Modern Dent Removal Technology for the next century of Band Instrument Repair. The Magnetic Dent Removal System (MDRS) was developed by technicians Eric Satterlee and Wayne Tanabe and uses to its advantage one of the strongest Rare Earth magnets currently available, the N50. The powerful magnets of the MDRare completely encapsulated in the MDRS Patented handle assembly with "Armor-Plate" end discs. All MDRS tooling utilizes Armor-Plate Tech-Metal end discs which are impervious to cracking, chipping, scratching, etc. and possess a superior lubricity characteristic. A Mylar disc and spray wax are the only substances you need to have between the MDRS disc and the surface of the instrument.

MDRS Tooling is sold exclusively to those involved in the trade of repairing band instruments.

This is truly an investment that pays you back over and over and initially in a short amount of time. Think for a moment about all of the Tubas, Sousaphones, Baritones, and Euphoniums, Baritone saxophones, marching baritones that you have always given back to your customers without estimating removal of dents from the bottom of the boot/bow and the first branch and/or body section. In the past you could not estimate this work without disassembly, and you could of course not estimate taking apart every instrument with a few dents, nor would you have wanted to do so. The advanced dent removal technology of the MDRS enables you to offer your customersrepairs with a wider range of dent removal options and has created a totally new source of income for your repair facility.
