Small Dent Removal
Anyone have any tips or tricks for pulling out a small dent that isn't creased. Some asshat I was parked next too somewhere opened their door into the passenger side door of my car and put a small nickel sized dimple in the door along with a few spots of their red paint. I really dont want to pay a body shop if there is some trick to get small dents like this out that I dont know about.

dent removal
I had a bunch of dings from the stores too! I bought pops-a-dent made by simoniz company . I believe I bought it from autozone. The first thing is use bug/tar remove to take off the other sob's paint and then try the dent remover kit. It comes with the suction cups 3 different sizes and a hot glue gun with glue sticks. The glue peels right off after the dent is popped out to original.

i actually saw a stupid trick on youtube with a guy using a blow dryer to heat up the area and then a can of condensed air and it actually pulled the dent out.. i dont have any dings yet so i havent tried it.. but its worth a shot
