Default Has anyone had paint less dent removal??

I have a couple dings in my quater panel and I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with paint less dent removal on there f body? Up in CT theres this company called "Dent wizzard" and they come in there truck and get there tools and press the dent out. Its like $65 a dent. I used to work in a body shop and we used them here and there and it works flawless. I just wanted to know if anyone out there has had it done on there F Body?

I had it done on my car by a specialist in my area in Pa. If you are interested let me know he does it out of his house.

yep and I was 100% happy with it. What was taken out of my car was actually a crease about 3"-4" long. The one guy I contacted from a nationwide chain type PDR place (I believe it was actually Dent Wizard) said they couldn't fix it, but I found someone who was local and who was VERY talented. He was able to get it out after a few hours at it. He travels all over the country to work his magic on brand new cars that have hail damage from sitting on dealer lots during hail storms. I have a couple tiny little dents I will have him take care of, the last two times I called him he was down south though working.

There is a guy in our club that does it and he did an amazing job getting out a shopping cart attack on my car. You cant even tell where it was hit.

I had a couple of small door dings in my 1/4 panel. Local company got them out, no problems at all.

dent wizzard sucks unless u get someone who really noes what they are doing. we have a specialist out by us and hes awesome. the thing is some guys like to rush and then they chip your paint. its time consuming so make sure that you get somone with a good rep

I am thinking it was around $200...?? maybe $150... I don't remember, all I know is that I was happy as hell because I didn't want to have it repainted. He does do minor touchup and blending I believe, but nothing too much. He does detailing stuff too.

We have the Dent Wizard up here. The body shop that repaired my car had them come in and pop out two dings in my quarter. They did an awesome job but I don't know what they charged.
