Product works on some dents but may not be adequate for smaller indentations. Make sure to let the glue get as hot as possible or it will not adhere to the car. Also be sure to properly clean the surface and wipe down with rubbing alcohol before applying the hot glue and pulling piece. Have plenty of rubbing alcohol and a rag available as it can be difficult to remove the piece from the car after pulling and be careful because I did manage to pull a few tiny chips of paint off with the glue when removing it. Cleaning the pulling pieces is also easier if you let them soak in a little bowl of rubbing alcohol. You can then pull most of the glue off the pulling piece easier. If one size or shape pulling tab doesn't work as well as desired, try another one. Some are rounded and some are flat which affects how it adheres to the panel. I preferred to use the puller without the slide hammer. Using the slide just pulled the glue and tab off the panel while using it with the handle alone worked better. I didn't get the results I was hoping for but the panels definitely look better than before so I'm happy with the purchase. If you can afford a larger kit with multiple different pulling devices and tabs, I would recommend purchasing one of those. Having the different size and shape pulling tabs does make a difference and the different pulling devices may work better for different dents or in specific locations. I am considering buying the two other pulling devices to see if they work better than the slide and puller.

For $35 you get quite a bit of stuff to get you started. I doubt you're going to be able to completely fix a debt like a PDR pro. My first bit of advice is to throw the black rods immediately into the trash and move on to the yellow ones. If you have a normal glue gun from Wally World, stop now and order or find one locally for these thinner rods. If its cold out side you're going to want a heat gun to get the area warm that you'll be working on. Not hot just warm, like about 70 to 80 degrees. Do this just before applying one of the numerous tabs to the cleaned surface with the yellow glue. Feel free to place them in several spots and don't spare the glue. Now go have a beer or two and come back in 10 min. If the gods are smiling upon you you'll be able to get 10 to 12 pulls or hits with the slide bar before you snatch the little tab thing off. With luck you'll at least reduce the dent but you'll likely need some PDR rods if your really going to get it all out. If you're starting with a big dent, bigger than your hand. I would suggest staring with a big suction cup initially and then moving to these things or going straight to push rods. I was able to get about half of the dent out of my Acura RDX rear panel. The remainder will either require some push rods or a warmer day. This glue really is NOT a fan of the cold.

This is a simple tool to remove big dent. My car got a big dent from backing up onto the retaining wall. The dent is at the very rear on the body, it would be a lot of work to remove the inner liner to push the dent out. This tool helped me to pull most of the dent out, so I could use a little body filler to smooth the scratch for repaint. Saved me a lot of time.Pros:Easy for use, a lot of different size of puller tabs, so you could use which ever the size fits. Use multiple tabs could save you time.Cons:1. Do not pull quick most of the time. The tab will easily come off if pull too hard. Try to gently and slowly pull from the edge of the dent to the center.2. The diameter of the glue included is too small, does not work for my glue gun, so I need to use my own glue and it does not stick well.Advice: Clean the surface before work and be patient! It will work eventually and save you a lot of sanding work if you need repainting. It should also work even you are not doing painting work. It's cheap, so do not expect perfect job.

After watching tons of PDR videos on youtube, I decided to give a PDR kit a try. Specifically I focused on the tap down kit that's included. The tips are made from a mold and have a harsh plastic line down the middle, which is NOT what you want. I had to sand the tips down so that they were smooth. Jagged edges will damage the paint and lead to further headaches of having to paint the panels! No glue gun is course annoying because to find a 100w mini glue gun you have to end up paying quite a bit more for the rest of the kit to work. This is most definitely a diy kit and designed to get out the basic shapes of the dent. If you want perfection, you will need to be godly with the cheap tap down kit, or invest in some real professional PDR tools. The slide hammer is decent, but can be dangerous if you aren't careful because you can smash your palm. The tabs will probably last a several dents before they break. A professional can probably use this kit and get by with it for most easy jobs and I think with enough youtube videos you can probably figure out the basics of PDR and get most of your dents looking to about at least 80%. Don't count on near 100% because that requires mad patience and much better tools. Last thing, use a heat gun or you can really damage the paint!TLDR: it'll get the job done and make your dents pop out, but the tools are inexpensive for a reason so don't expect 100%.

I have a '94 F150 pickup that has picked up a few dents during its lifetime. I had seen YouTube videos on these kits with newer paper-thin cars. I bought this particular kit because it had everything I needed. I had a nasty ding in the truck bed, and I couldn't get to the back side. So, instead of pounding it out, I had to pull it out. I haven't finished it yet, but this kit is surpassing my expectations.A couple of notes:1. It comes with a cute little glue gun. I didn't use it, because I already had one.2. While alcohol(not the drinking kind) softens the glue, carb cleaner is magic!3. I wait five minutes between laying the glue, and pulling. And thinner glue is better.Take it slow. It's only sheet metal. The newer the car, the thinner the metal.
