Scanned through the clearance box at autozone today and found a suction cup. The description just said great for lifting objects with a flat surface. I saw it as a cheap dent puller. $1.99 and 10minutes and i almost got every door ding out. I ended up ripping the suction cup off so im going back to get the other 4 left. I simply lached it on and tugged and wiggled it. Each dent took about 5-6 passes b4 it was gone. I even got two out of the top crease of the doors.

Sorry no pics cause i dont have great lighting in the garage but i wouldnt post it if it wasnt worth your time and your $1.99

i got a kit of 3 different size suction cups years ago for a dent in my 1st car, worked very well for a $5 fix. i would recomend this to anyone with a dent to give this a try 1st, it will take it almost all the way out.

More than likely not, small dents usually are quite tough and need to be banged out.

Almost All of my dings were small door dings... The came out ... But took longer. The bigger they are the faster they pulled. This suction cup was the diameter of a paint can. I bought the other four this morning and gave two to my co workers. But small dings are harder. The two in the crease line were actually the easiest and i thought they'd never come out

just tried pulling a door ding tonight and it worked pretty well especially considering the price spent for the suction cup. from what i could see the suction cup pulled out about 80-85% of the door ding i had, which is great!

i ordered a 4 inch and a 2 inch one from amazon. the 4 inch one is what worked best.

Good stuff... Dont be scared to really tug it... I had to get pretty aggressive with some of them. Glad ur happy with the results. Try misting the spot and the suction cup with a spray bottle first... Better suction

Wow, I need to try this. My biggest pet peeve about my car is the door dings, and some are quite large. I always thought the suction thing would be a cheap gimmick. Care to provide an amazon linky?
