Dent Wizard?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Has anyone ever used dent wizard or a service similar to fix a ding that chipped the paint to the metal?

 

I stupidly let a bungee cord slip out of my hand and if flung over the bed of the truck and slapped the side. It knocked a chip out of the paint and left me with 3 very noticeable dents. If it wasnt for the fact that the truck has less than 5,000 miles and it chipped the paint i could almost let it slide but I just cant take it just yet.

Always had great luck with paintless dent repair services. That said I purchased one of these recently:

Was able get out 80% of a dent on my wife's new Rav4 and 70% of a bad door dig on the corner of a panel of my 2015 Honda Si I just traded it. Can't see either unless you know where to look and get the light just right. Took about 2 pulls per dent and only spent an hour of my time total. Hit the paint with some touch up and clear over that.

Dent wizard works great, but it won't fix the paint chips. In some places they can use a tool to wedge the dents out (like in doors), but sometimes they have to drill an access hole, which is then plugged with a small rubber gasket. I had 3 large dents pulled from my last car (prior to trading it in) for about $150..couldn't even tell they were ever there.

Depending on the paint chips, I've had great success with Dr Colorchip for small chips and Langka for larger ones.

I knew a guy that did the paintless dent removal and he did a great job. Like streetracer101 said, they have to be able to access the dent from the back side.

I just had paint less dent repair done on my rig. Best 150.00 I've ever spent. You literally cant tell there was anything there before. Some of them from door dings (that could be a whole thread in itself :banghead: ). I looked at doing it myself.....but I know I would have screwed it up somehow. The paint will be a small challenge, but as stated above you have options!
