Default Tiny Tiny Tiny dents.

I am completely **** about the way my car looks. I wax it every other week, and wash it at least once a week. Tonight, while washing my car, I noticed about 5 tiny dents on the hatch area *on the top of the hatch below the glass, where a spoiler would be mounted*. Does anyone have any "home remedy" to remove these tiny dents? When light hits them, you can see them really well :-(

Paintless dent removal is not that expensive. You shuld look up a local shop ( or a detail shop might know a guy ) .
They can make them go away .

? Maybe I should go out tommorow and check that!

You know, just the other day as I got out of my car, I noticed these bubbles on the dash! As in, I had horrible flashbacks to the threads on here talking about people with their dashes with bubbles! wtf!

I only have like 950 miles!!

It's not somthing you can do yourself. It requires special tools and experience. Done correctly, you will not know the dents were ever there.
Trying to do it yourself will probably do more harm than good and afterword, the repair may be even more expensive as both the original dings AND your attempts will need to be done.

I had a friend in the business. I played around with his tools for a few hours on a hail damaged wreck and made it look far worse. Those guys have many hours/years of practice and only make it LOOK easy. It is not easy. I'm not an idiot either, had have over the years done plenty of reasonably high quality body work. PDR is a special skill.
