It might work on dents that 'pop' but just snapped and left a mess on my car. For less than Halfords money (which is just plain theft at £19.99 for a glue stick) there's a 'Ding King' dent puller that looks a bit more capable on eBay. I haven't tried it yet.

Anonymous Unregistered A	That will only work on big dents though, not like the 5p coin size ones that have suddenly appeared in the middle of my bonnet this morning..... I think im gonna have to try one of those dent wizard guys or something.
