ok here is the low down on this AS SEEN ON TV dingking. it will probably work really well if you apply it to a dent that is bigger than a dime. anything else smaller... it will take numerous of times to get that dent to come out.

as for my little dent on the top edge of the trunk... it took me 8 times before that dent is starting to come out. the first 3 times was pure experimentation.

here is how to do it...
put glue stick into glue gun. wait 5 minutes, and it will start to drip. use the plastic piece from the box to remove excess glue that is dripping cuz it's probably cold already and not gonna work. u want to drip a small amount of it in the dead center of the puller tab and quickly apply it directly onto the dent. now... if you missed the center of the dent... then it's ok. for small dings... try to work ur way from outside to inside. what i did was using a black electric tape... i cut 4 small pcs. i use to to make a crosshair mark around the dent, especially towards the center. don't put tape too close, cuz glue will get onto it. on another thing... large dent use the larger puller tab and extra glue. small dents and dings... use small puller tab and just a drip to fill a little bit over the center of the puller tab. u'll understand why when u try it. and after 5mins of drying... then carefully put the brackets around it... and hold it down gently. then... gently screw the knob on. any sudden movement... the pull tab will just pop off.

all in all, this system is really great for flat areas... but for round edges... just have patients... while waiting for puller tab to dry... light up a cig, kick back, or go and torque something down. then come back and with one single turn... pop goes the weasel~
