How to Remove Small Dents from a Car Body

Article provided by wikiHow, a wiki how-to manual.

A small dent can be very simple to remove from a car body.

Steps

1. 1
   Get a small clean drain plunger. Use the simple style of plunger without the flange in the bottom.

   2

2. Clean the body of the car so that it is free from grease and dirt.
3. 3
   Put a bit of soapy water on the rim of the plunger, not too much. This will help the plunger create suction against the clean car body.
4. 4
   Attach it to the car body over the dent. Create an adequate amount of suction.
5. 5
   Slowly pull the plunger until the dent is gone.

   
   

Tips

• This idea may not work for larger dents or more complex damage.
• Check the dent to see how far the metal has bent. If the dent is not round, when you pop it out with the plunger, there will still be creases
