Default Shopping Cart ding!/Dent Wizard

Not too long ago I took my wife to Target and like always I park my truck away from shopping carts and on a corner spot. I finished shopping go to my truck check it and everything was fine. However, as I was online waiting to get out of the lot, on a windy day, this shopping cart came out of nowhere straight into my passenger side door. I saw it coming but because I was online, I couldn't avoid it and got myself tattooed. I was so mad, I thought to myself this isn't going to get fixed, I realized i took as part of a package, the Dent Wizard, paint-less dent removal warranty, took it to the dealer and to my amazement the guy removed the dent. You can't actually see any evidence of a dent at all! I was so happy I couldn't stop looking at the door for a good half an hour. Do you know how they remove these dents? I couldn't speak to the guy, he left too soon. Anyway, it's a great thing to have when things like this happen.

They take off the interior panel or go through the window opening. Then they use tools to massage out the dent starting at the outer line of the dent. They blend in the dent to match the paint and Voila, you are done. Basically, the new high grade steel and paint allow this to be possible.

good to know. I have a small fender dent in my car. Might be an easy fix.
