First off, I apologize for the sound quality of this video, wind gusts up to 40 mph could not be filtered out. However the information contained in this video can help you turn lemons into lemonade... and one more thing... once you're done with the repair, take your vehicle to one of your insurance drive through claim centers with a copy of the claim, and get them to clear the hail claim as repaired. That way if you get more hail in the future, you won't get screwed.
that was a big improvement with just glue. we don't get hail that often here in the south, maybe once or twice in three years. but one year back in the 1980's we had it cause some damage to a lot of cars on people living in the city and dj's on radio were talking about it. one of the dj's said he was from Kansas or Nebraska where they get it a lot. he said what they do is leave the car in direct sunlight to get the metal hot and place small pieces of Dry Ice in the dent, they pop right out.
I've done the dry ice thing before, the only problem with the dry ice is that the rapid change in temperature, not always, but can cause the paint to crack, with the hot glue, the paint doesn't get stressed. Off the subject but similar, I think it was the late 1940's, in Spearfish South Dakota, they had the largest, fastest, temperature drop every recorded. Lots of car windows, store windows, glass exposed to the rapid temperature change shattered. Kinka the same thing with the cars paint and the hail dent... not all the windows shattered... but some did
@@Jeep_psychology_101 yes that big dent surprised me. I think if you had two or three of those devices on it and increase tension every few minutes over a longer period of time before it pops off, would probably do better.
@TwoFeatherChannel I absolutely agree with you, double the glue contact, double the pulling power, and at that point I believe that it will completely pop out

@@TwoFeatherChannel what do you think about that big dent pull? I was amazed at how well it did.....I left it overnight and got even more of it out
