Default accord dent removal

Hey guys, I got a dent (if I make a fist my knuckles kinda cover it ) and im trying to remove it. Its right along the the lining where my hood meets the left fender. I bought that ding king but for some reason the glue wont stick right I guess cause of where the dent is.
If I take off the fender would I be able to roll it out?
Maybe heat up the inside with a blow dryer and push it out?

Heating with a blow dryer won't work.....but what might work is if you take the fender off and try to tap it out the best you can.....not sure what it looks like but doesn't sound too bad

tapping it out would be about as far as you can go before a repaint would be required. It's actually the first step most body shops use to remove dents, then all the prep work.

Try PDR (paintless dent removal). They have special tools to try to pop it out, but from your description and the angle, you might be SOL. Give them a try and ask for an estimate.
