anybody every use Ding King?...my gf's car got dinged pretty good a few times by a truck that parked to close to her and forced her truck door along side of my gf's car and made like 4 medium size dents..and i have like two around the way of my car...does it work?..what have yall heard?
thanks

 

I used it once on my old civic, I dint do anything just a waste of my money..... maybe I did it wrong but i dont think so. good luck

 

I also thought about using this since I have two very very tiny door dings that I dont feel like paying hundreds to get out.

I looked into the ding king and stopped immediately when I saw that you have to put glue on your car. There is no way in hell i'm pointing a glue gun at my S.

 

I would see about getting a paintless dent repair guy out there (one from dent pro, dent dr) to fix the dents; shouldn't cost more than 80-100 bucks a panel or even the whole car.
If the truck is a neighbor or someone she sees on a regular basis, I would make them pay for the damage they did!

 

I've used this approach -- I don't remember if it's "Ding King" or another such thing -- but not on a car as nice as an S. I think of it as being more for old, cheaper cars that you want to trade in with fewer obvious defects.

It works fairly well on flat parts of the sheet metal and for larger, non-creased dents. The glue part isn't that big a deal, as you clean off the wax first (so the glue will stick), clean off the excess glue, and then re-wax. You can also keep after the same spot with several tries until you get it the way you want it.

If the problem spots are accessible from inside (such as those on a door might be, if you take off the door trim), you'd have a better result getting in there and pushing it out. Otherwise, go to a pro. HPH

 

I agree that this method is a last resort. But there are areas on the S that cannot be accessed from behind. For instance the area just behind the doors has a structural web behind the sheetmetal. In these cases there may be no better alternative than to use the glue and puller. I did a small dent with success, but used short glue cycles and repeated about 10 times.

 

PDR or paintless dent removal is the way to go. Find a reputable shop and pay the $50-$75 dollars to get them "rubbed" out.

If done properly, you will not notice they were ever there. I've had this done on ALL my cars and it's worked every time.
