DingKing...It works

Who has seen the infomercial about the DingKing dent puller?
I did and was skeptical at first, then I found out that the local
paintless dent repair guys were going to charge me $450.00 to fix the assortment of dents and dingers around my car. So at $29.95 ( I got the $49.95 version with more glue and attachments) it seemed worth a shot. Well after a couple hours I no longer have dents and dingers. This thing works! I'm so happy!This red thing looks pretty good now. Just like everyone else, when I look at my own car my eye goes right to all the blemishes. Now they are gone. Some of the dents were larger then your usual car door dinger and took more then one try to completely pull out the ding but it still worked. This may be something worth looking into if you have dingers plagueing your doors and fenders.
If interested here is the address...

Wow!!!! No kidding?
I was thinking about getting it, but worried it wouldn't work.
There are a few ding's in my car, and one big one where someone hit me.
Is there is anything else you can tell me about this DingKing?

dingking

Most of my dents was from a walnut tree which made dents just like hail damage. Some of the smaller dents came out in one pull, while others took two and sometimes three pulls, none of which takes much time to do. I had on dent on the passenger door the size of a softball(because it was made by my neighbor kids softball), it came out in three pulls. They tell you that dents with a sharp edge in the dent may not come out completely,also it doesn't work on repainted cars, must be oem paint. It works because of the thinner sheetmetal used these days.

Wow. I'm impressed. I have a ding about every 2" up both sides of my car, so this would be an excellent investment.

Didn't you get yours with your membership?

Well I'm actually just wishing. It would be a nice thought to see a network owned kit that would make its way among all the members.

The next tool we need now is a rustkingtool for small bubbles of rust.

I tried DongKing once, but it didn't live up to expectations.
Quite a letdown.

I need both. The front of my car has chicken pox, and my doors look like golf balls.

Hang in there.

New photos

I've added photos of the process to my folder. I put them in the folder in order but they didn't stay that way...not sure what happened. It worked well for the dingers I had and I had quite a few. I also added pics of my SVX finally because it looked so much better. You would think I worked for Ding King the way I talked about it, but I don't.

Does it only work on the "round" dings, or do vertical dings work as well, i.e. those that end up on my car when some uncaring unattentive person opens their door into my car?

Perhaps you should try the model designed for smaller applications.
