+1 on dentless... As opposed to "dense" attempts.

BTW, 157db, welcome back.

I might give it a try on my t-bird (It needs a paintjob and other stuff anyway)

Never heard of this. But ssems a bit dangerous and unconventional. How about the Paintless Dent removers.

Dry ice is just as efficient as p#ssing in a violin and expect to make good music...

PDR is where it's at.

The only thing about PDR is $$. I got similar quotes around here roughly $150 initially, $15 a dent, and $75 each time you switch a panel... It will cost me roughly $500-600 to get about 20 or so dings but mainly imperfections where the car was bumped and didnt crease or ding but its like a flaw in the panel....

If you have a lot of dents, it will cost you but it'll still be cheaper than repaint.

The trick with those guys is to find an employee that will do it on his own time on the week end, for cash.
Lots cheaper.

This is true, I am sure I could find one cheaper around here like that. The guys I have gotten quotes from are they're own business though!

Where you live, you'll find someone I'm sure.
I used a local guy here and I make money with him...
I wish we'd get hail storms more often around here, as long as it's not in my neighborhood, lol.
