Waiting for the Dent Doctor

Two dents on my door should be gone soon, both on the door ridge. He's got the magic touch.

Well not as successful as I'd hoped because the bigger dent was blocked by a brace
.so he only got some of it. The smaller one gone so that's not too bad.


The paint was broken so not much we could do with that, now the touch up
paint shows more than the dent. $50, so.....

If they can get a pick behind it they can do just about any panel on a car.

Total waste of money my brother. Dent is still there - same order of magnitude and who cares anyway on a beater? That could have bought you two cases of very good beer!

false alarm... thank goodness. Different kinda 'dent'.

Here we call it "paintless dent removal", some call it dentless paint removal. If you have access to the underside of the dent, and there is not a really sharp crease, I've heard these guys can work wonders. If you're afraid to remove interior body panels, headliners etc... well, not so much. And old paint is not as forgiving flex-wise, I'm told.

Looks better in the pics though.
