if its not tooo big, could try a block of dry ice. wrap it in a towel. hold it on the dent until it frosts up really good, then take it away. if ur lucky, it will pop out. just dont do it in sunlight or on a really ht day or the paint could chip.

Huh...never heard of that before. I used something like the "Dent-doctor", got a dipple out of the truck lid. Was hit by some Mexies play'n soccer in my park'n lot. $35, well worth it.

pfft... newbs, everyone knows to use the Ding King.. ROFL.

I dunno about this.. but when local places give this product for people to try, 90% of them say it "improved the look of where the dent was". Overall it got a "C" rating. Might wanna try that, its only $29.95!!! Act now! As seen on TV!

not to hijack but would one of the ding king dent things work on a really small dent. I've got one in each door from people opening their car doors into mine. Each ding is roughly the size of a dime or smaller.

see if u can get behind the fender with ur hand and give it a good hit, otherwise get a slapstick and dinging hammer and gently hit it so u dont have to repaint.

all it is is hot glue gun and a suction cupp. It would be a hell of a lot cheaper to make ur own. It's a lot simpler than u think.
