Is it really that simple? =20 Here's some good news for you (it was for me with our Pearl 1990 200...) if you will look around, you should be able to find a business with a name like "Dent-Magic". It should be one of a new generation of shops which can **remove dents with no paint or body work*!! Yes, and it's not a gimmick! These guys go to a special school which teaches them techniques to "massage" small dings out of body metal with plastic and metal tools. The idea is that they will use plastic punches and smooth-faced metal tools to literally stroke the metal back into place. I watched a gent take two door dings out of my Pearl Audi in less than an hour, and he charged $60 each. I CANNOT even see where they were- and I know where it was!! There are limitations to what they can do - they can't take out creases or eliminate paint damage - but your dent sound perfect for them. They DO need to be able to get at both sides of the body panel, but this is possible in most places. I can testify, folks, This is the real deal, and it's worth every penny they charge! If you're in doubt, ask them for references and talk to past customers. *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** Al Powell Voice: 409/845-2807 Ag Communications Fax: 409/862-1202 107 Reed McDonald Bldg.
