Default DING QUESTION

Today I went to clean my car a noticed a slight ding but a very lite ding but the paint was perfect. Can a ding happen with out destroying the paint or did it come from the factory like that. Thanks everyone for the help.

You may be able to use a suction cup to pull it out or push it out from the opposite side with you fingers , or gently with the plastic handle end of a screwdriver .

Every dealership everywhere either has a paintless dent repair guy in house or has one that comes around once a week. Call a dealer you like and find out when their guy is there. Go find him on that day and give him $20 or $30 and have him do it.

These guys are artists and have techniques you and I might not think of, every time I watch it, I am amazed. Some can fix a totally hail damaged car to where I simply can not tell it was ever damaged. If you try it yourself, you might screw it up. Why risk it?
