Default Does Dent King work?

They sell the Dent King at Kragens, etc. I think it was also advertised on TV. My friend has it and he hasn't used it. He got the thing for free, so it is just sitting around. Has anyone tried using it? Does it actually work? Does it make the body/dent worst?

I tihnk you have to make sure how you pull the dent out is correct. cause my friend tried it with his GTI and it pulled the dent out, but made a differentdent that he cant get out because of it. maybe he is just an idiot though

yep. mall granny kick their doors out, and ask questions later. had them in the doors and quarter panels. also had some small dents in the fenders (probably from their shopping carts)

I suggest being very careful. the sheetmetal in integras are soft and pliable. I had only minor success wiht my maxima which has harder sheetmetal. patience

the worst that can happen is you pull a peak out of the metal and have the dent convexed rather than concave. hehe

Well use dry ice for door dings... Using this dent king will risk the clear coat peeling off.

I heard about the dent king ripping off clear coats. How do you use dry ice?

I used it on my step-dad's Alero. Basically, put it on, let it sit, pull off, and repeat about 50 times or until satisfied. It didn't completely get rid of the dent, but it did decrease the size a lot. And I'm assuming where the ding is on the car also plays a factor on how easily it will come out.

for dry ice you put it on the other side of the dent if possible and take a hair drier and heat it or if not put the dry ice on the edge of the dent and heat it...
