Default Repair a small dent, how do i go about it????

I just got my 92 hatch, and the body is perfect except for a small dent on the drivers side door.....Its about the size of an apple, pretty small

I was thinking about just taking the door panel off and using a small sledge hammer to bang it back flat, will that work?

Im just wondering what you guys would do, or have done since i know there are lots of you out there with theses sort of problems....

P.S., dont tell me get that dumb "as seen on TV' Dent popper, cause it DOES NOT work,.. but thanks anyways....

Later

take the inside panel of the door off, and remove the sound deading ****, then you can see the back of the sheet metal. i say push at it, slow and many pushes with like a rubber hammer.

The problem with bodywork is ppl tend to be impatiant. pull the panel and work it from the outsde in. Dent pro is a good they made my friends black accord look new. and it was Bad.. Only 200$$ not bad.
