Remove dent from tin top
Got back to my car last night and some dipstick had put a dent in the passenger door. Not to pleased.
Can anyone recommend a way to remove the dent without involving a respray etc. Going to dry the hair dryer & compressed air trick tonight but
looking for alternatives.
Failing that can anyone recommend somebody around the aberdeen area that can do paintless dent repairs.

If you google 'paintless dent removal' there are several nationals who come to you.... Dont know what sort of price they charge but worth
a phone call if the plunger doesn't work.

I tried that CO2 spray in the dent thing, it only works on large shallow dents like the size of a dinner plate. No use on small ones.

I had a bloke called "Singh the Ding" do a panel for me, he used to work on the end of the Ford production line taking out dents from new
cars. Top job and charges £45 a panel, cheap if you have 3 or 4 small dings. Suspect he might charge a bit more to drive to you!

Yeah, there are a lot of them about and prices seam to be around £50 a pannel anywhere.
- Looked into get some paintless dent removal done in my front wing of the 306 (bought it like that) but in end didnt bother, then this week it
gained a scratch in exactly the same place. Gahh. Lifes too short!
