Default Ding King

I've got a nice size ding in my car door. Has anyone used the ding king? Any opinions on removing the ding?

-Thanks

I will be taking it to one this Tuesday. I'm not going to risk damaging the paint to save a few bucks. Thanks for the input from all of you.

Well I went by the shop today. They told me anywhere from 45 to 80 dollars to have the ding removed. Alot of money for a ding, but I guess I will be forking it out. I just know next time someone dings my car they will either give me cash for the damage or the cops will be called. I can't afford to be spending that amount of money on someone else's wrong doing.
