hail damage question - nklr

[Patrick Zegers]

I have used a suction puller.  They work, as John said, on sweeping curves.  If it's creased it will still be visible.  Don't think about it to long or it will want to stay how it is now.  It will kind of cure in its new shape.

The dent had a relatively smooth radius and the puller removed the dent without any damage to the paint.  I bought a set of three different sized pullers from Harbor Freight for less than $20. The dent I pulled out required the largest of the three pullers in the set; the smallest puller is the set might work for your hail damage. The pullers work best for smooth and constant radius dents.  From: DSN_KLR650@yahoogroups.com Sent: 5/ 20/ 2015 7:25 AM To: DSN_KLR650@yahoogroups.com Subject: [DSN_KLR650] Hail Damage Question - NKLR   I am weighing the options on "do-it-yourself" hail damage (dents) on my Toyota Tacoma, and dry ice was suggested......................  I have since learned that one can buy dent puller kits, various types and price ranges.  I am looking at one that has a  "suction cups and hot glue"  concept.  Glue the puller to the dent, and pop out, I guess?  So, have any of you all used those types of dent pullers?  I am weighing dry ice vs.the hot glue puller contraption. I thank you in advance. 31N90W #ygrps-yiv-108050983 #ygrps-yiv-108050983yiv3282375336 #ygrps-yiv-108050983yiv3282375336 -- #ygrps-yiv-108050983yiv3282375336ygrp-mkp { border:1px solid
