Default DENTS!

Every time i wash my car i find new dents SOMEWHERE on my car... OMG!! and today i just noticed another dent on passenger side obviously from sumones door. its a group of dents (3), this guy not only hit my car once but threee TIMES LKJFLKJFDLDJSFLAJF!!!!! !!!

Anyways do most of u have a lot of dents on the side of ur car or do i just get bad luck???? i look at ur pix and it seems flawless.

Any products that fix dents or help it?
*did a search but "search is messed up giving me an error"

There are a number of dent pullers on the market like this one popsadentbut I dont know how good they work. Do a google search.

To be honest, prevention isthe best medicine. I usually park in remote enough spots where people don't want to park next to me, can't park next to me, or park next to me beacause they too have a nice car and don't want dents.

i've had my baby for working on 1 1/2 years, and i have not so much as one dent in it. it's all in the magic of finding the right spot and being willing to walk a few extra feet to save a dent.

If the paint has not been damaged, a professional dent removal place like Dent Wizard can usually get the dents out and you will never know that they were there. $100 for 3 dings, but I feel it is worth the money. I have used them several times on all my cars.

I've used the "Ding King" which is pretty much the same thing with mixed results. I had a med sized door ding which I was able to easily take out with the Ding King, but we tried in on a bunch of really small ones on my friend's car and it wasn't as successful. Btw, by "med sized" ding, I mean about the size of fifty-cent piece.

that ding king sucks, i too have many dings/dents on my babes, even through prevention it happens! I have had my car almost 2 years now and have over 25 small dings,
whatever you do do not use a product like ding king..go to a paintless dent removal joint!!

25 dings in two years!!!? Where DO you people park? In the little tight spot in front of the bar where no one else parks because the space is small and the lot full of drunks?

Not that I have anything against bars or drinkin' or anything.
