"AS SEEN ON TV!" lol.
I had a dent on the upper surface behind the passenger door. Sort of a bad place for dent repair as there's no easy openings into that panel and there's a double layer of metal there (inside lining of the pass compartment) which makes it difficult to get to the back side, even with a PDR tool. So I didn't figure I had much to lose from trying the Ding King (except my $20, of course).
I have to say, it worked surprisingly well. Took about five pulls, but I'd say I got the dent about 80% out. Probably could've gotten it to 90% if the smaller of the two glue-on pullers hadn't broken on me (yes, it's shoddily made). It's not perfect but, hey, for 20 bucks it's quite an improvement.
Considering the PDR folks charge $40 or so a dent it was definitely worth it for me, especially since I can now use the kit on a few dings on the Milano. Obviously the results depend on the size/shape of the ding (if the metal is creased don't bother)
I'll report back in a few weeks with any further results.
