Description

2-in-1 Straight and Curved Panel Removal Tool

Brief Overview

This dual-ended removal tool combines straight and curved blade profiles in a single, compact design—ideal for technicians working on automotive interior trim, dashboard panels, and center console areas. The tool's thin metal tips access tight spaces where standard removal tools cannot fit, making it an essential accessory for any shop handling interior restoration or modification work. Consider pairing this with a comprehensive trim removal set or specialized dent repair tools to round out your panel and trim handling capabilities.

Key Features

  • Dual-Ended Design: Straight blade on one end, curved blade on the other—two tools in one

Why This Tool Outperforms Single-Ended Alternatives

Unlike standard single-blade removal tools, this 2-in-1 design eliminates the need to carry multiple tools for different access angles. The curved blade handles convex panel edges and rounded trim, while the straight blade accesses linear gaps and dashboard seams. The thin tip profile—a critical feature often missed in budget alternatives—allows technicians to work between tight panel gaps without risk of deformation or cosmetic damage to the vehicle interior.

Ideal Applications

  • Dashboard panel and bezel removal
  • Center console trim access
  • Door panel and window regulator trim
  • Upholstery trim and clip removal
  • HVAC duct and vent grille access
  • Interior electrical connector covers

Closing Value Statement

Stock this compact, dual-function removal tool as a must-have for any automotive service operation. The forged SCM 440 construction guarantees durability across hundreds of interior panel jobs, while the thin-tip design protects customer vehicle aesthetics—a winning combination for both reseller margins and end-user satisfaction.
