I had tried this on a very basic fender ding (no cracked paint etc) on a Miata I had back in the day... for me it was a total waste of time.

Although YMMV ... I would prefer to run my car through the PDR guy (Dent Wizard) ... for $75-125 per panel I was completely satisfied with the removal process.

I've tried this before several times (on other cars) and it's worked exactly 0% of the time
