How to Quickly Fix Small Dents on a Car?
2 Answers
Repairing small dents and depressions on a car can be done using methods such as suction cups, glue sticks, and bodywork painting. Here are the solutions for fixing car dents: 1. Use dent repair technology: For dents on the car surface without paint damage, utilize paintless dent repair technology. 2. Use bodywork painting: For dents with paint damage, employ bodywork painting for repair. 3. Use a glue stick: Insert the glue stick into a glue gun and heat it for 3 minutes, then apply it from the center to the edges on the suction cup. 4. Use a suction cup: While the glue is still warm, attach the suction cup to the stress point of a larger dent and pull it out evenly to restore the dent.
I accidentally got a small dent on my car the other day and fixed it quickly using the hot water method. Prepare a pot of boiling water and pour it over the dented area to heat and soften the metal. Then, use a car-specific suction cup tool to attach and pull evenly—just a few gentle tugs will flatten the dent. The tool costs less than 50 yuan on Taobao, and the process is simple and time-saving. Be careful not to use overly hot water to avoid burns, and protect the surrounding paint with tape before pulling. If the dent is slightly deeper and harder to pull, wait for it to cool and try again or use a lubricant for assistance. After fixing the dent, just wipe the surface dry. I always park in open spaces to avoid scratches and fix dents promptly to prevent rust. Overall, this method is quick and affordable, taking just about ten minutes.
