I am having a bugger of a time finding one locally

Dont know the tool but I have heard of using dry ice in some fashion or another. I had bad hail damage a year ago and the roof ones popped out on their own after a few hot days with the windows all closed. Is Bama hot yet?


here is one I found - dent repair

hail is not bad, roof is perfect
but the hood has about 6 spots that you can see if you lean and get the light just right.
moma's contour took a beatin about 50-60 pops on the hood and top

I was really surprised we didnt loose any windows,
from inside the rv it sounded like a load of gravel gettign dropped on us. :eek:
I was looking for one that applies a vacum and no glue., the one on that site is $$ for a glue bump and puller hammer
as small as they are on the boss i may leave em. but i still know thay are there,

going to stop by a glass place and see if they have a suction cup and try that.

it looks pretty puny, but if it yanks out 6-10 dents then breaks, it was worththe $$, but mine are real small less than the size of a #6 washer, more like glancing blows, fingers cant hardly feel em, but the occular orbits can from the drivers seat, :(
looked real bad before i washed her yesterday

Close to the real OC 47462
Got 11 hail dings in the new Camry from the other night....roof and trunk but surprisingly none in the hood. The Super Duty must be made of cast iron. Good luck and give a report on the Ding King Twist a Dent.

Robert, I think I would try the dry ice first if they are that small, Don't see how it could hurt anything. The Mercury got three dings on the hood but haven't found any on the truck yet. Need to wash it and look it over again real close.
Is it May yet?

how does dry ice work?
place it on the divit and let it cool down, till it contracts enough to pop? if so that could be a real Cheap fix???
not may yet but vacation starts this friday :D :D :D :D
