umm, if u go to the cometic section of the forums, there is a thread titled The Awesome How To Thread by Samo, and in it, NissanTuner has a write up about how to do so, without damaging your paint, i think it involves dry ice? not too sure, go check it out

heh do they work though? my friend says that it leaves the glue on the paint so its gay, but he hasn't acutally used it before.

I was actually reading in Readers Digest about the newest As Seen On TV products... they gave that gay ass flip flip fold shit almost 5 stars!!! anyway the dent puller (ding king) got 3.5 stars, because it doesnt give a solvent for the glue. You could use non-acetone nail polish remover I heard from one sorce, it is strong enough to take off the glue but without acitone it wont take out your paint. My friends father owns a body shop and they use a VERY similar item to pull dents... basically a more expensive version. I say give it a try.

The flip flop fold is a thing the you put a shirt or pair of pants on and it folds it perfectly! I watch a lot of late night TV.

depending on where the dent is, you might be able to use the non-adhesive suction cup tool sold by Autozone. It dramatically reduced a large dent in our station wagon and left the paint intact.
