Hood Stand Hard Top (Carbon Tech)

Stiff Elbow Push Support & Adjustable Deck Lid Mount for Paintless Dent Repair

The Carbon Tech Hood Stand Hard Top Add-On is built for PDR technicians who need extra stiffness and control during elbow pushing. Replacing the standard soft top, this rigid panel delivers a firm and stable platform that makes controlled pushes easier, especially when working on stubborn dents or in tight areas.

Designed with professional PDR workflows in mind, the Hard Top Add-On includes an adjustable deck lid mount. This feature makes it simple to work on deck lids, hoods, and other panels without constantly repositioning your setup. Whether you’re repairing hail damage or handling precision panel work, this upgrade keeps your stand more versatile and stable.

All parts nest together for compact storage inside the existing Carbon Tech Hood Stand bag. This keeps your setup lightweight and easy to transport to different job sites. Setup takes only minutes, so you can move from one repair to the next without losing valuable time.

Please note: This listing includes the Hard Top Add-On only. The hood stand and storage bag are not included. This add-on is designed for newer Carbon Tech Hood Stands and will not fit older versions with aluminum corners or hinges without modifications.

Key Benefits for PDR Technicians

• Quick assembly — Saves time on busy repair days

Why Upgrade to the Hard Top Add-On?

For PDR work that demands precision, stability matters. A soft top can absorb force, making it harder to apply the exact pressure needed for clean dent removal. The Hard Top Add-On eliminates this flex, giving you a firm, predictable push every time. The adjustable deck lid mount is especially useful when switching between hoods, deck lids, and other panels without breaking down your stand.
