TV Dent Puller

They had that dent puller advertised on TV on sale for under 19 bucks at Pep boys this week, and I bought it. I tried it on 3 small dings, and it really worked well; it fixed 99%, and when I have time to play more I can probably get it perfect. I still have a couple of small indents on my hood I have to work on next.

Before anybody asks, pictures would not really show the dents since they were small. But other people witnessed it and were impressed with the results.

When I looked at the HHR panel at the dealers lot the salesmen ask me what I planned on using it for. At that moment it was to be a daily driver but later I would have a better idea. I asked him if any had been sold and he replied that an individual that had a business of pulling dents bought an HHR for his business. I've yet to meet the dent doctor.

Nope-not the suction cup. The one where you use special hot glue then put it in a device that looks like a gear puller. Actually, knowing the HHR's thin body, I was a little worried that I would create 2 additional dents from the device. But it really worked well

I will when I get home. But for a SATURN? The panals are plastic and cant dent!

Unless you need it for the trunk, hood, or roof. I also have a 99 SW2 Saturn plus my HHR replaced my 93 SL2. For the life of me, I can not understand why Saturn did not also make at least the hood and trunk out of the plastic panals. Hoods around my part get lots of dings from baseballs, basketballs, footballs, etc when kids play in the street.

I think hes talking about the Ding King sounds a little cheesy but I have heard it works well when used properly. I sell these at my work from time to time and usually hear good things about them. They were advertised on TV alot by Billy Mays ( the oxy clean guy)

might make them look a bit better but if it is creased or on a body line then no, it won't fix it completely. besides if its creased you may need to worry about the paint cracking or chiping when you try to work it out. sorry

I have a small crease on the top of my drives fender. It look like someone parked next to me in a large pickup and opened their door into my fender. There is no paint damage other than a little black that was left from them that rubbed right out. Its small and fairly unnoticeable but seeing as how I know it is there it bothers me.
