How to Repair a 1 cm Small Dent on a Car?

[BlakelyLynn]

For very small dents, you can try using dry ice. Wear anti-freeze gloves and place the dry ice directly on the dent. After about 30 to 40 seconds, the dent should pop back into place. You can also choose to purchase some specialized dent repair tools, but keep in mind that not all dents can be quickly repaired. If the car body dent has chipped paint, it is recommended to use metalworking and repainting. This method is very effective.

Last time my car roof got a small 1cm dent from hail. I directly used a hot glue stick to attach a professional pulling head, pressed it firmly onto the center of the dent while hot, and pulled it out steadily. Key points: Choose a sunny day for the operation, ensure the glue stick is completely melted, and apply vertical force evenly three times to restore it. Dents on door panels are actually simpler - just reach inside the door panel's padding and carefully push it out from behind. Fixing this nail-sized dent myself saved me 500 bucks in bodywork fees, and I realized keeping a few different-sized pulling heads on hand is quite practical.
