OMG you have given me the confidence to use my dent puller. I will invest in the mini one I never knew you could get them that small. Finally I can use my own plastic mallet for the first time! Which is a great idea I would never of though of this. Especially in these economical times great video!!
Pour a couple of kettles of hot water on get panel very hot (metal expands) suction cup pull and put cold water on (metal contracts) dint should be history . I was doubtful when some one advised me to do it but it works a treat wooo
@@Ex-pomjohn Yes, you are right! Its old English. I never knew. I learned something! Thank you. I usually check before I correct anyone, and this time I didn't, and it came back to bite me! Ha ha!
I am a grandmother who bought one of those orange pullers yesterday to try my hand at getting a large pushed in area out of my truck back bed panel. Had watched a few videos like this first, and was able to pull 50% out with the first pull. (I am not at all strong) Worked another 20 minutes and got most of the rest of it except an area that has a crease in it as in this case. The truck is a beater, so I am not going to worry about it, but I am happy with what it did and I certainly got my $4 worth.
I am a grandma too, and I am not sure if I should buy it, the dent is worse than this. The problem, when I go to get gasoline, men stop by and say, “ for $350 I fix your car right now. Sorry I don’t have cash. Don’t worry, for $250 I fix it now. Thank you but I don’t have cash now. The last man told me, for $100 I fix it, you can get the money from the amt machine, ….🤔🤔🤔 I said, give me your phone number and I can call you next time. 🤔🤔🤔😂😂😂😂😂 I know $100 is not much but I wasn’t being sure
Wow, they do work! I have to do my car too! A heat gun would have worked well. And alternate between heating and dry ice behind some foil. The hot and cold works well to pop out small dents. I would have take out the door panel and pushed that out with my hand or a rubber mallet. They also have rawhide mallets for jewelry that are gentle. Thanks for a great demo!
Did pretty good. Got a new sideline now. I would have removed that term first but you got there. But I have been around it for along time my brother had a body shop until about 3yrs ago when he to decided to retire around 73 or 74. God bless you'll
The quickest way would have been pulling the door panel and hitting it from the inside. The cold metal sure didn't help in removing the creases. Nice job having a lot of fun with a friend.
I would rather try this before pulling everything out from the inside. I’m not sure I would get it back together properly and I’m not looking for more problems
We purchased that same suction pad from Harbor Freight in the Bronx NY to address a pointless dent at rear driverside panel right near the bumper cover. It did a good job on the area furthess from the bumper cover, but we have the same issue with a crease that we now believe that a smaller suction pad will work. Thanks for your suggestion on releasing the pressure on the creases as well.
May I ask you if a Cold Glue or Hot Glue can be applied to a suction cap to pull a large dent out? I've never seen in any film people using suction caps that way, though I've seen 2x4 wooden blocks used. Thank you for the great and informative film. I didn't know you need to spray a glass cleaner to improve the action of the cup, I'll try that way. Before the cup was attached firmly only to the smooth area, where there is no dent.
Thanks for testing this! I was in the parking lot of the grocery store and damn if the wind didn't push a shopping cart into the door of my van and dent the hell out of it. But I think I can get it out with this with a little perseverance and a measly $5.
I also used one of these kits: amzn.to/34yiZKM (affiliate link from Stoney Ridge Farmer) it's a Paintless dent and ding remover kit...it will take out small dents very nicely in case the big dent puller doesn't work
@@miketin745 It is a good idea but watch out for paint peeling if it gets too hot. Gently. Wagner $22 at Home Depot. I did my plastic bumper this way with no issues. Popped right out.
I fixed my Subaru bumper with Hot water and pressure works a treat .Your dint is to close to a main beam it may work a little but it will not repair %100 .
I value seeing people enjoying themselves while accomplishing something. By chance, have you both known each other since you were kids? Thanks for the video.
Bought my Chevy Colorado it's a 2004. And bought it for 600 couple months ago. And it's at 186k miles. But to the point I had to use one of these to pull a dent out of my cieling bc a tree had landed on it. It wasn't to bad but it was noticeable it pulled it out right
This guy is great I can't believe I just found it now but I love your videos awesome work I learned so much from you from this short video appreciate you
I too served in the USAF, but if you think we still live free you’d be sadly mistaken. Had I known what our country would become I would have never served.
I'm honestly trying to fix my door and found this and all I gotta say is, what in tarnation is going on ? I went from watching one gentleman having a four step well executed plan to two southern gents making animal noises and extreme grunting when making each pull.🤣🤣🤣 Each shop keeps telling me I need to buy a new door because it "rolled" against some brick and bent the door up to the handle making me nervous I'm going to rip my handle off. I realize, doing this by myself will not get it perfect again, but hear me out. It will cost 3k to replace my door, paint match, and labor costs. I feel like I can try to fix it thanks to these videos, and yes, know it won't be perfect but again, I'm tired of looking at that dent. I hurts my soul with a $445 monthly payment and 2 yrs of memories. So, thanks everyone in these videos for all the laughs while I try to figure this out.
Hmmm...did ya watch the whole vid? I did...and thought the same thing you thought.....it actually made them slip all over and release easier....I know..seems like it would work better wet
I was reading reviews on Amazon about these dent pullers, and they weren't very positive, but after watching this, I'm going to give it a try. Thanks for posting this video.
If the dent isnt exactly on a flat surface I wouldnt. Just got mine Friday and sending back. My truck has a dent in the tire well and it will do nothing.
A toilet plunger with a little soap works real good on dents, but if theres a crease its hard to get that out with just a plunger. Try using it on your truck.
I would suggest taking the inside door panel off and pushing the dent out if it's frames in there with holes I suggest using a rubber mallet and a number 2 pencil and bang the eraser end to push it out
Looks good. It is a farm truck. A few scratches and dents don't stop it from working. At least you both had fun. Me, I would have rather gone deer hunting.
I had a book somewhere on metal bumping it was a great read and informative another tip is to get to it as soon as it happens and its more likely to pop back the longer u wait the more memory the metal has. In my experience
@@dazzio187 it's on the dashboard of my work truck right now it's a paper back book.. I think it's called The Art of metal bumping.. I know it's red and black and white pictures
Hey, you think this will work on the bumper of my 2016 F-150? I ask bc all I see these used on doors, roofs, hoods which are thinner metals than my bumper. Idk much about body work, it’s a much smaller dent than what your workin wit, idk I’d appreciate advice.
it's a suction cup my brotha...it's not pulling a dent out of a thick steel bumper ...however you can buy entire replacement bumpers fairly cheap nowadays
so annoying just about to go into the store to do shopping and walked past the passenger side of my car to notice a dent on the door. annoying when you cant tell when or where it happened and because of some idiot either intentional or not its frustrating. hopefully this method works.
The suction cups where more rated for moving /picking up car window glass which is around about weighs 20 pounds or less from what i see. You really need dent specific air compressor suction cup equipment or stretcher autobody equipment or stud welding/slide hammer equipment. But i to am curious about plastic dents so may try really only got them to move light weight glass panels around such as car window glass.
Despite them not working on your trucks i would say those things work well enough My guess is you should heat the areas up with a heat gun and work some other angles and spots around the dents i kind of agree with your conclusion on purchasing several in order to work many areas at the same time on a side note ive replaced regulators on a older Chevy work Van and you needed. The super large pop rivet gun and special rivets i got from a freind who owns a repair shop and half of a Snap-On truck as he and his brother are certified mechanics and co owners

John Fisher Makes perfect sense.
If you do that on a cold day it can ruin the clear coat on the surface.
DENT, not DINT.
Excellent advice! I need to do this.

Try using a hair dryer set on Hot on the dent, when you're pulling. It really helps.
Is a heat gun better than that a suction cup ?
@@miketin745 you want to use both. Heat it up and suction pull it out
I'll admit that was more funny than informational but I'm good with that!! Thanks!!
You know back in the day we went to the hardware store and got a bunch of toilet plungers and used them! They still work!
Sometimes
Why do you need a bunch?
12:22 thank me later
Appreciate 🙌
Later: Thank You
Ty
Pro_player441 thanks
You a goat
I used a toilet plunger to pull a dent on my '64 El Camino years ago. Worked fine, lol.
Probably depends on the size of the dent. I'm sure this helps more with the smaller dents

That's where I bought mine.On Boston Rd.
you can use heat gun to remove the sticker decal and when pulling dent.Heat make metal soft and easy to manupulate.

@@gayealisir5661 dude you're gaye
Your video's are so informational and fun to watch. Keep up the great work.
Just spray hot water in the dent then clean it with a clean rag then try to pull slowly with the suction pump and it will work .
I have several dents on my out of shape body...this will work good! 🤠
What is the name of the equipment?
This guy spends more time talking than doing the actual job.

Damn, for the money you can't beat those suction cups. Gunna go out and buy me a couple as well today.
How did it turn off ?
@@miketin745 It actually worked, but for some dents the crown of the dent is in far too advanced or technical of a spot for the suction cups to work.
Did you use a heat gun ?
@@miketin745 no
I really appreciate it I was trying to figure out should I buy a heat gun or suction cups
Hot water over it would help or open up the panel put in a deflated soccer ball and inflate it while wedge near the panel.

So any updates?
try wetting the suction cups. they form a better seal.
Hmmm...did ya watch the whole vid? I did...and thought the same thing you thought.....it actually made them slip all over and release easier....I know..seems like it would work better wet
Used one of them before. I poured hot water on dent and it worked
Looks another better. Thanks for sharing.
Since it is cold there it probably would have been a benefit to heat the metal with a propane torch, indirect heat??
Harbor Freight and my inability to budget will lead to my financial demise. The tools are cheap, but love the place. Thanks for the fun video!!
I got one at my local store and it came out on the first try with boiling water. The one I had is 80lb laguna
What would you suggest I do for this dent in a 1967 VW? Should I use those tools or try pushing from underneat?"
Would it make a difference if you gently heated the metal while attempting to pull the dent out?
it could
I think this dent puller, plus some hot water will work too, if you have hot water available.
The moulding is holding the dent in. Pull the moulding off from right to left to release the dent.
You have to hammer in the crease with body hammer. Release pressure
Why would you hammer a crease? You mean crown? Yikes
Would this work on a trailer of a box truck?
314,000 miles. respect
I was reading reviews on Amazon about these dent pullers, and they weren't very positive, but after watching this, I'm going to give it a try. Thanks for posting this video.

You can use a plunger 🪠

This was an exciting video to watch I just bought one of those dent ding removers🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I would suggest taking the inside door panel off and pushing the dent out if it's frames in there with holes I suggest using a rubber mallet and a number 2 pencil and bang the eraser end to push it out
Thank you for sharing
they have a painless dent repair at harbor freight also, it has a hot glue gun with it, and you tighting it down and the dent pops out.
If you take the interior door panel off you could push on that with the palm of your hand and more than likely pop it right out.
That was awesome! Thank you!!
you guys did great and enjoying watching you . you are funny though . good job finally ...Red Biber is happy i am sure . finally hard work worth .
Damn that's a big dent! This would guaranteed work on my basic ass mazda touch n go dents from parking issues and dummies bumping into me
Looks good. It is a farm truck. A few scratches and dents don't stop it from working. At least you both had fun. Me, I would have rather gone deer hunting.
Will this pull the dents out of my head?
Use a plastic mallet to tap the high spot while you pull on the low spot with suction cup
You fellas gave me some Real Hope and i may get my door dent out with your help and a prayer!
U got it?
well done! simultaneously pulling and hammering is the key
impressive man!!
Wet the area where you attach the suction cup. That will enhance the vacuum seal?
It better than using a heat gun ?
Use a heatgun pulling moulding and tape stuff. It will work alot better
If you're gonna go from the outside, I like that you took the trim off. Good effort guys !
LIFE SAVERS!!!
that was great guys!
Does hotwater stuff work too bro??
Good job i also bought my 01 Silverado new and it only has 104k miles on it
Your entertainment working very nice, good job
Would heating the steel help??
Yes.
Yessir many have said it would help
With out a doubt
harbor freight cups work great!
Yall are great. Thanks for the video
What did you spray on your truck at 3:21 ?!
What if use heat gun and heat the area ?
You use that or boiling water
can this thing t can use for garage door dent? waiting for your reply.Thanks in advance.
I had a book somewhere on metal bumping it was a great read and informative another tip is to get to it as soon as it happens and its more likely to pop back the longer u wait the more memory the metal has. In my experience
Is it any good on general car repairs and do you remember the name?
@@dazzio187 it's on the dashboard of my work truck right now it's a paper back book.. I think it's called The Art of metal bumping.. I know it's red and black and white pictures
Very entertaining video, guys.
Where did you get these?
link in video description to my amazon page...you'll find them there
I think trying a toilet plunger would work best. That`s what I used when a cow caved in the side of my Bronco II.
What are they called the tools u used ? Thank you
Do this suction cup really work?
watch the video my friend
will this work on small dents?? like tiny indents
Hey, you think this will work on the bumper of my 2016 F-150? I ask bc all I see these used on doors, roofs, hoods which are thinner metals than my bumper. Idk much about body work, it’s a much smaller dent than what your workin wit, idk I’d appreciate advice.
it's a suction cup my brotha...it's not pulling a dent out of a thick steel bumper ...however you can buy entire replacement bumpers fairly cheap nowadays
Spread some Vaseline on your suction cup it allows a much better seal and actually will seal over some warped areas
A flat ball (foot,volley,basket,etc)which fits dents the best, then inflate ball.
Use hot water it helps
Always something to take from ur videos
Now , that was awesome
so annoying just about to go into the store to do shopping and walked past the passenger side of my car to notice a dent on the door. annoying when you cant tell when or where it happened and because of some idiot either intentional or not its frustrating. hopefully this method works.
What about trying a powerful fishing magnet to pull it out?
I’ve heard of boiling a pot of hot water and pouring it on the dent, placing suction cups and then pull. I’m gonna try it on my truck soon.
Have to be careful. I heard it could cause your clear coat to peal off.
Nice job boys ! I was considering doing an insurance claim and was gonna eat $500 deductible. Didn’t have to !!!
Thanks !

This is true! Just did that and it popped right back into place.
You need to include more outtakes like that in your videos
mine is still ,stuck on the dent .. But it gives my car that different look !!
