Default dents

im trying to figure out a reasonable way to get some dents outa my car. THey are small mostly by the fenders( thats what you get for parking at Nassau Community) anyway i did get that pop a dent thing that was on tv and it doesnt seem to work. I dont know if im doing it right but im looking for a way to not end up spending hundreds at a shop.

any ideas let me know

Well, I got 5 dents out by a PDR (paintless dent removal) guy for about $125
Ive tried that "As Seen On TV" thing. It worked, only for BIG dents. It doesn't work really well on small dents. Ive tried, especially those Door Dings.

Check around your area ... Craigslist always has people doing PDR work and they might be cheaper!

Dry ice can be used to "pop" out small dents.

i used a heat gun but the hair dryer seems safer.
