dent in the door!

[j_robi]

have a small dent on my sliding door (from over enthusiastic van rockers!!), it has very slightly cracked the paint
what is the best way to get the dent out
is there some form of plunger to suck it out?
or is it a matter of pushing it out?
cheers

It really depends on the size but you can get a sucker thing that might work. The same sort of thing as peeps use to lift glass with but I'm not sure how successful they are. Screwfix do them as do a couple of other places but I can't remember what they're called

It's a dint/dent puller - we got one for about a fiver which successfully removed a person shaped dint from the passenger side. If your dint is too deep/big, or the edges are sharp then it won't necessarily achieve the best results.....and you may find that as the metal has flexed already, it returns more easily sometime in future......

thanks guys
there are stacks of these dent/dint pullers on ebay, any recommendations for a quality brand?
cheers
