Actually no need for reply, went to beach cities and they got my dent out in 20 minutes. THe bumper was plastic so a 100% result was not possible but boy did they ever come close. Extremely happy with the results, as said before, these guys work miracles. Will post pictures as soon as I get my camera.

well, i don't have an account with them, so i'll just explain it. you only need a hairdyrer and some of that canned air. FIRST. use the hair dryer to heat up the dent for at least a minute. SECOND, immediately use the compressed air thing upside down so you get the freezy stuff, and spray the area which you heated. THIRD, just wait till the ice defrosts, the dent will pop out by itself. COOL!

Sorry but that's wishful thinking. I'm a professional PDR tech and owner, it's not going to work like ya think. Don't take my word for it though, try it yourself.

it works on the xb from an owner here is his comment on the cheap technique "rooneymaster (5 days ago)
This technique is used 4 flimsy aluminum can-like cars. It really does work because I used it on my car (toyota scion xb) and it came out looking just as good as before it had a dent. "

Completely different type of dent!
That will work when you have a large, pushed-in panel dent without ridges.
For door dings like we're discussing, i would bet money it won't work.
And to say it won't damage paint is also very unlikely.
There are undoubtedly micro-cracks that will get worse over time.
If I had a minivan, maybe.
Otherwise, no thanks.
