I've got a couple of carpark dings in the tintops and last year I paid about £50 to get one removed by one of those mobile dent removal
companies. They seemed to do the job very quickly and didn't need to get to the inside of the dent to pop it out. I just saw this kit on eBay and
wondered if anyone has had experience with this type of thing.

I bought the exact one. Don't know if I'm a retard or something but I couldn't get it to work after stringentely following the
instructions. As soon as any pressure was applied the glue would just give up and break leaving a blob on the body work that was impossible to get
off, leaving a dent and glue :-( well that's my experience.

I've not used one of those before, but I've used a slide hammer dent remover a few times and been successful...
I,ve not used one but after reading the info on that listing it looks like a handy bit of kit to have, decent price too 
cheers

My wife bought me the same one too a few years back. It's yet to be used but does look really cheap and I don't hold out much hope! I'd not put any faith in it and pay the professionals to sort it!
A slide hammer would be ok if i didn't mind drilling, filling & painting but I just want to pop the tiny dent out - the paint is intact. I
was thinking that hot glue wouldn't have enough strength to pull out a small dent (possibly might do one a bit bigger though) Maybe a vacuum
device of some sort would stand a better chance?
The 'dent guy' told me that it was more down to the memory of the metal more than anything and it is surprising what will just pop out
without leaving a trace.
heat with hairdryer then put freeze spray on that spot ......pop

Mango - Ah yes, I forgot about that trick 
Steve - I see what you mean now - what glue though?

Have you tried using a sink plunger? I've found if they're in open places like on the pictures in that link the suction can pop them out..
I have same kit works fairly well it was good on a fairly major dent on a sill, it took the damage out enough to be finished off with filler.
It works on door dings provided there is no stretching or creasing.
I had no problem cleaning the glue off --- just use very hot water.
