Been pulling out a dent for an hour with these on the rear door of my Peugeot 306 Gti6. The small one proved totally useless as it comes off too easily. The large one however was good and I was even able to pull across the curved surface of the panel without it coming off. End result, after one hour of extremely hard work was marginal improvement and both hands blistered.
The dents with creases, you’ll have to work with the surface. You can still use suction cups, but you’ll have to “play with the dent” a little..you won’t be able to pull it out directly from the center, so pulling it from the upper edges of the creases & working them out will usually make the dent “less visible” but it may still be there slightly.
I can't get the cup to stick at all I bought the 4 in. aluminum body suction cup the rubber seems to be to ridged ,idk, I've tried wetting the cup and nothing ,what am I not doing right ?
I just bought the small one and initially not much success dry. I just tried it again with glass cleaner and if you keep working it back and forth it creates a tremendous amount of suction. Enough to rock my full size GMC side to side. Even when I released it, it still had suction.
@@seifyboy2832 no unless you dent is deeper like mines on my Challenger right side quarter panel. You will need to boil the water to a certain degree and pour it on the area that you see the large dent and use a special the design suction cup tools to pull it out. It's a repetitive process, but it's certainly worth spending above a grand to a repairman
they work but you have to prepare the metal first; heat the metal where the ding is with hot water; or hairdryer then put the dent puller on area; then pull - try this way - the dent puller needs help first ie: heating metal to make it flexible etc
If you have a small dent with a slight crease, after cleaning and heating up, I think using a rubber hammer, high frequency tapping on the highest spot of the crease, as you are pulling a small suck cup together might give a better results on the dent..
Thank you for this because I did not know how to use it i was stomped as to how to get it to grip then I watched your video to see that the thing opens and once the latch closes its gripped, my dent is gone, I appreciate your video
Put it in a cup of boiling water for 10 mins soften up, then clean and dry surfaces,then you're good, you can use a toilet plunger if you soften it up, I've been using a toilet plunger since the 70s
If the metal is deformed enough that a "crown" (high ridge or high spot) is formed, you need to work the crown down before you try to pull the dent... Remember... You're trying to remove the dent in the reverse order when it was created only slower step by step...
If you were to incorporate some peripheral light tapping with a small, soft hammer simultaneously on the crests while your were pulling I think you'd have measurably greater results. This would enable the puller's mechanical advantage to facilitate easier molecular relaxation of the stressed edges. Fun watch though. Thank you.
the one i bought suggests getting the the surface at least damp because it can make a difference in the suction, you just can't have it too wet, which he does do that in one of his examples.
I've found that, if accessible, go from the inside of the dented area with a child's small football. Place it against a firm surface (such as a 2x4) to press against and slowly inflate the ball. The dent will easily resume original position. Relocate ball as needed to get other parts of the dent out. Go slow! You don't want to stretch the metal beyond original position. J. P. Stockton Ca.
Very Bad idea to use Windex on car's paint surfaces ! Amonia acid in Windex will strip out all protective wax and clear coat polish.Use hot water instead !!

I would leave the dent if it’s not impacting the doors. I have a dent on the back of my front fender next to the door, and is preventing the door from opening fully. So that will need to be pulled.
Very informative video. Just bought both of these in hopes to remove a freshly made dent in left quarter panel. Ugh. Thanks for your time. Appreciate you.
Ya" Nathan, it dose work. But the the other system which uses glue sticks and a plastic attachment and a puller. That method dose work well for smaller dents. And it's easy to use, but the clean up if a little tricky..BMW OWNER.
i have a huge ass dent on my quarter panel, i don’t know how deep it is, but it was deep enough to take off a chip of paint. do you think this would work on it?
I have a big round big dent in my side door from kids that slammed there moms truck door into mine at the store and then left so it’s on me now I have a Toyota Corolla it’s back and the dent shows well it’s a deep dent but the size of this machine do I think id get it out with this ?
They work pretty well but a dent pulling set with glue is still better by far. It is time consuming as hell but it works. I wouldn't use suction cups for creased dents though.
@@Mrmboneee2 I got mine to work it was the type of soap you spray on it my truck is steel I used that stuff call green window cleaner worked great it's a clear color just named green
I find the mini suction cup is useless and could suck any dent out cause it won’t stick properly to pull it out. Oh well off to panel beater I go😞thought I’d save a few hundred bucks but it didn’t work for me. Feel like I’ve been scammed.

I bought one, it was on sale for $4.00. Used it and it worked great! Best $4.00 I ever spent!

@@dannybrazil3986 not sure. But I guess it depends if you have a crease in the dent. That could keep it from pulling out right.

Do you use hot water first?

most BMW doors / hoods & panels are aluminum. if you pour hot water on it then try to use the suction cup it'll work much better
W comment my car is new and i somehow got the smaller dent on the passenger door
@@babyzebbb9221 hey, did the cup dent puller works for you? I have small one too and I'm tryna find one that works./
Would it work on the roof of a car near a door? TIA
Thankyou so much just saved me alot of money ❤

Do car mechanics charge you for new body parts when they're really just sucking out dents with a suction cup?
Probably
Put it in a cup of boiling water for 10 mins soften up, then clean and dry surfaces,then you're good, you can use a toilet plunger if you soften it up, I've been using a toilet plunger since the 70s
Did you boiling water and a plunger on a side door? Does the hot water ruin the clear coat?
Hot water? Hair dyer or heat gun would probably produced better results BEFORE applying the clamps.

@William Riley thank you for your information. How do you work the crown down?
@@eiccoaching8642 Body hammer and/or tapping tool...
You have to pump the lever a bit before u grab & pull it. It'll grip it a bit better. Just saw it on another video lol

The surface has to be dry for maximum grip, it slips because it's wet
the one i bought suggests getting the the surface at least damp because it can make a difference in the suction, you just can't have it too wet, which he does do that in one of his examples.
These work well when you need to ch age out youre wheel center caps saves time and money on a special tool that does the same thing

That’s weird cause I can’t see shit lol
What pound are they, the one I got from O’reillys is a 80lb and worked very well.
a dent with any sort of crease seems impossible to pull out with suction.
They work 60% of the time.... every time.
Oscar Gregory that makes no sense, great movie
‘Oh would you look at that’ , ‘Just look at it, would ya look at that?’
Why did you get alot of hate on your first video about this?
It was a video of how the product FAILS....?
Very Bad idea to use Windex on car's paint surfaces ! Amonia acid in Windex will strip out all protective wax and clear coat polish.Use hot water instead !!
They told him not to use windex on paint last time. He said he got lots of hate last time so remade the video.
I was thinking adding some dish soap to water might be the ticket. I'll let you know when I give it a try.
I can't get the cup to stick at all I bought the 4 in. aluminum body suction cup the rubber seems to be to ridged ,idk, I've tried wetting the cup and nothing ,what am I not doing right ?
they need to make an oval shaped one for the BMW
Thanks 👍
Hot water on metal does absolute shit.. works on plastic... pulling dents out of flat surfaces is easy.. what about corner areas?
I just leave them alone. They give the car character.
Bet you own a Camry
@@Chilidog6669 😂
I would leave the dent if it’s not impacting the doors. I have a dent on the back of my front fender next to the door, and is preventing the door from opening fully. So that will need to be pulled.
Yeah retarded driver
If it was my car alone I would be able to agree more
Thank you, perfect... I appreciate it...
you need the suction cups used for fitting large windows in buildings sticks like glue and wont pull off till pressure is released
I'm glad your doing the videos I got a dent in the bed side of my truck
Very informative video. Just bought both of these in hopes to remove a freshly made dent in left quarter panel. Ugh. Thanks for your time. Appreciate you.
Did it do the job..I just found a light dent myself today and bought a suction cup for it. Getting it tomorrow.
u prob need to warm up the metel
Ya" Nathan, it dose work. But the the other system which uses glue sticks and a plastic attachment and a puller. That method dose work well for smaller dents. And it's easy to use, but the clean up if a little tricky..BMW OWNER.
Why was he wetting the suction cup? Didn't this make hard to stuck it?
i have a huge ass dent on my quarter panel, i don’t know how deep it is, but it was deep enough to take off a chip of paint. do you think this would work on it?
Brand ?
The O'Reillys one won't even work on most completely flat services, let alone anywhere near a dent
I like to use cooking oil as lubricant cause you can massage the dents out
I’m
Like going on 2hrs now and yah still no success at all. It won’t suction at all wet or dry. Lol.
Can those suction cups work on roof rails?
So you're saying there's a chance?
What's all this one in a million talk?
Brian Phillips lmao
Would that work on a stainless steel fridge
Why you putting windex?
I have a big round big dent in my side door from kids that slammed there moms truck door into mine at the store and then left so it’s on me now I have a Toyota Corolla it’s back and the dent shows well it’s a deep dent but the size of this machine do I think id get it out with this ?
maybe,, but also try a regular house bathroom plunger-- that might work also
Be a real anarchist and venture out on the sharp edge. Let us know how it worked for you.
do you think it would help if you heat the dent with a heat gun or the boiling water hack?
Does it come with a magic wand and fairy dust , or is that extra ?
@ 2:08 that what she said 😂
They work pretty well but a dent pulling set with glue is still better by far. It is time consuming as hell but it works. I wouldn't use suction cups for creased dents though.
Would the orange suction cup work on hail damage on my hood?
You have to use hot water to soften the metal.
I have 3 small dents on the left sides of my car. Does this sucker works for smaller dents?
Why not hot water?
Worked great on the first dent. Thumbs up!
This is not for e53 ,e46,e39 it's for later models which made of cartoon 😜 which have lighter body our car has strong body need stronger tools 😅
So true bro. Them older BMWs are tanks. I ran a stop sign clean over. These newer cars would of split in half

Frick man dont give up that easy,
Awesome I need to do that to my rental is full of dents. Thanks for sharing this video.👍
Why not use two of the smaller ones at the same time
Combustion69 damn hair,, on my screen!!)))
Maybe the small one would work better if you didn't use so much water
Have you tried using 2 of the small ones next to each other?
Mine don't work for crap dry no suction at all wet it just slid back and forth
Shit doesn’t even grip smh waste of money

Poor hot water on it first
doesnt work!! anybody have any tips????

Why use windex?
You use windex to ruin your paint, an to create less suction compared to water. Basically should not have used Windex.
I didn’t work unfortunately
The best way I found to fix mine was with my girlfriend head for doing it

Hello Nathan. I have a bmw e46 325ci -03
My problem is that it is hard to start when its warm
It usually starts but it takes a few tries.
When its cold it usually starts on the first try but it takes sometime for it to start right up the engine is "coughing" but it does almost always start.
The engine also feels "wobbly" when i accelerate like the engine is hesitating. It certainly doesnt feel like the 191hp its supposed to have
It also has very pour mileage about 1.7 mpg
Do you know what the problem might be appreciate all help!
