I'd like to get the things needed to pull some dents out of my minivan and truck. I want to practice on them before my Fit gets a blemish that needs work. Searching the internet I see there are a variety of bridge pullers, posts, cleaners, glues and releasing agents. What are the best choices? Choosing a glue seems mysterious to me.

 

best choice is u get it done professionally unless u get professional training like me. i dont do PDR for a living, but ive fixed thousands of dents and took me a good year and hundreds of practice dents before i felt confident enough to work on my hobby cars.

i will note that glue pullers are my last resort tool unless it's on the roof.

if you dont know wat ure doing dont touch the dent. the multiple distortion u add to the single impact dent makes it even more difficult to fix for a pro.

 

Bought my 2013 Sport used and with a dent in the tailgate. The Dealer offered to hire someone to perform PDR on it for $150. Well worth it -- the result is excellent. I mess with cars mechanically, but agree with kenchan -- I wouldn't dream of trying dent removal myself.

 

Yeah, PDR is an 'Art". A top-notch job takes practice.


That said, I've slept MUCH better at night after removing 90% of the dents on my cars, and I use a glue-puller (The "Ding King", LOL).
