Paintless dent removal

Post by monckton@xtra.co.nz » Thu Mar 09, 2006 1:09 pm

I have recently had a number of 'supermarket type' small dents taken out of
my MX5 (with excellent results), by the 'Dent Magician' in Feilding. There
are however some small dents remaining in the rear panel behind the
passenger door. He attempted to get to them via the inside of the rear
wheel arch, but it appears that there is a double skin which prevens access
to the outside panel.

Has anyone had any experience of paintless dent removal in the rear panels?
I would be interested to hear how access was gained.

Cheers
John

Paintless dent removal

Hi John,

We had a couple of dents taken out of the side panels when we first got the
car.

The guy drilled a small hole in the rear of the door jamb, inserted a
specially bent rod and "bob's your uncle"! Two minutes and no dents.

The hole was then plugged by a rubber grommet and, to match it, he put one
in the other side. Looks like it was always meant to be there.
