THE SKINNER TM
Door Panel Installation Tool Part No. TH15.000 The Skinner cuts new door panel installation time by installing door panels without doing damage to the outside of the new skin. The Skinner when used with a 3/8" hand rachet and 3" extension, will fold the new door panel lip over in one easy operation. This tool floats on a "Teflon" type material, eliminating any outer panel damage. The drive roller is completely adjustable to compensate for the various differences in door skin thickness. Caulking material can be inserted into the fold before it is flanged, avoiding future rust problems. With the use of this tool, there is no need to use plastic filler on the panel to eliminate hammer and dolly marks. Drive roller along with folding rollers are heat treated and built to last a lifetime. The low cost of this tool is far less than a new replacement door panel. The savings from grinding discs alone, not to mention the time and plastic filler saved, will more than pay for this tool in a very short time. The Skinner is made in the U.S.A. and is a true work of art. |
Looks awesome!
Teflon is a super slippery stuff that they use on your pots and pans etc if you didn't know, it would rather slide out of the way than wreck the metal... |
i asked about this a while back on the paint and body forum and the reply from the experts was that "it takes just as much time to master this tool as it does to master the hammer and dolly method". i've done numerous skins, and by the 3rd or fourth one its second nature. i'll probably end up buying this tool anyway, seems cool, and you can never have too many tools. so to answer your question, no, i havent ever used it, so my reply was pointless

i bought one similar about 8 years ago,used it once.disliked it.it did to much damage and had to be filled. can do just as good with hammer and dolly.if i knew where i threw it i would give it to you. just my 2cents
|
that looks like a cool tool i would buy one but like the other guy said any tool will take to get used to
|
Cool! I wonder how much $$$? Do you have the website or know where I can buy one?
|
Never used one but on highly curved panels or panels with detail lines I'd bet you'd be using a hammer and dolly for half of it anyway.
