A few weeks ago I managed to damage my new car while pulling into the garage. Jeanine’s car had been moved directly outside of her bay to facilitate the cleaning of the garage. This forced me to use a significantly different approach angle and I failed to clear the inside jamb leaving a 2-foot long indentation in the door. Totally my fault and totally demoralizing. Today after lunch, I used a polishing compound to remove all of the transferred white paint and happily discovering that the body paint was totally unblemished. This left only the dent to deal with and it occurred to me that I might be able to pop it out with the right tool. It took me less than a half-hour to conceive and fabricate a simple device that had a reasonable chance of working. I used hot melt glue to secure the small block to the body panel and the threaded knob to slowly pull the dent out. It took a half dozen pulls at various angles to get the correct shape back and I am very pleased with the results. If you know where to look you can still detect an anomaly, but to the casual observer, it is as good as new. I am guessing these 2 hours of work saved me at least a thousand bucks and the hassle of leaving my car at a body shop.
