Default Best way to fix a dent???

I was dusting my car the other day and noticed a dent on my rear bumper. It's up and down on the upper curved part of the bumper about 1 inch long and varies from 0.1 to 0.2 inch wide. And the paint is still intact and shiny. My guess was some bastard hit it with a shopping cart or something... I might also add that it's about .1 inch deep...

Anyways, what's the best way to fix it short of going for a complete repaint?

I have two. I'd like to know also. A body shop up the street will pop them out for 20 bucks a dent, I believe.

The dent is on the upper curved and painted part of my rear bumper, I don't think the DentKing kit would work...

Is it ok to just full the dent up with touch up paint, smooth (maybe fine sand) up the area, wash, clay than apply some quality wax???
