Hi guys
I basically got caught in a tornado, and had my car slammed with hail stones ('94 2 door RS). It was so bad that it knocked my wiper blades off and dented all my window panels, but the worst is my hood. It is just full of small dents and welts...about the size of small grapes. I was wondering if anyone knows a good way to pop these little dents out. I really dont want to Bondo and repaint, cause it costs alot of $$$. Any suggestions?!! |

Re: Need help with hail damage
Check the phone book for paint-less dent repair. We get this all the time here in Orlando. Basically they use what looks like a screwdriver that has the tip cut off and slightly rounded. They open the hood and slowly tap the dents out from the back side. Sometimes they drill small holes in the reinforcement to get access to the back side of the dent. Works very well. Good Luck.
PS. They little suction cup devices do NOT work. Sometimes they suceed in pulling off a circle of paint. ugh!

Re: Need help with hail damage
I have heard of people using dry ice or liquid nitrogen. Rapid loss in temperature shrinks the metal causing the dent to come out I have not tried this myself, but just somthing i have heard.
