This is a pretty cool kit. The tools themselves are good quality, not great, but definitely good enough. I went ahead and polished the knockdown tips and blender hammer, they we a bit rough as new. I preferred the black glue, and I also preferred only letting it set for a minute or 2 to avoid over-pulling (I'm in north Texas). If you over-pull you have to really work at knocking it back down and this is a skill I'm just not very good at as a newb. Great selection of glue tabs, I think a good tech could pull most glue-pullable dents given this selection. I really light the light board, you'll be able to tell where your high spots are and find dents you didn't know were there :) Keep in mind that in general glue pulls are less precise and you will need more patience vs a rod-based approach. A full set of quality rods is pretty expensive though, and its hard for a new guy to know what rods you'd need. Or really how to use them, let's be honest. Overall the kit has a good selection of tools, and you have pretty much everything you need to attempt glue pulls of all your dents. You'll need to add alcohol which was not included, although they did give you an empty spray bottle. Update - I added a few pics, the first 3 are of the worst/deepest hail dent I had. I went after it with the glue tabs but got stuck because it started oil-canning. Got a whale tail tool to get under the brace and push from underneath. Mostly gone now, I sanded it down but went through the paint so it'll have to be touched up. 4th picture is my hood, I did the hood last, my skills were better than when I started, but I highlighted one of the more stubborn dents. Overall I still think this is a nice kit. I did not achive professional results with my extensive hail damage, but I did make it quite a bit better. In addition, now that I have the tools, I can always go back and attempt improvements if something jumps out at me. Read more
This kit has all the tools you'll want for doing a hot glue type dent removal. I put a nice monster set of dents from turning too sharp and smacking a pole in the side of my brand new transit van. I was able to pull out the small dents and over time was able to get the big dent and it's children dents pretty close to normal again. For all the dents one go didn't work - I had to sit there for an afternoon and repeatedly stick the pads onto the van and pull them out. The tools provided work pretty well. The least effective tool for me was probably the bridge puller tied with the slide hammer - both those I didn't use at all. I tried the slide hammer but it is long so it's hard to pull completely perpendicular with the pad. What's nice about it though is that it disassembles so you get 2 T style pullers. The T style pullers were great for the bigger dent. I could just sit there and pull on those hard but not hard enough to rip the pads out and that eventually really helped get the majority of the big dent out. The T pullers and the big anodized aluminum tool were the most effective in my case. The hammers and taps that come with the kit are also super useful. I twas able to hammer out what was almost a crease in the panel, and that helped the big dent come out even more. The pads included were really nice because there were some big ones all the way down to really small ones... so as the dents got pulled out more I could switch to the smaller pad and refine the result even more. Overall this is a good kit... but it is just the same repackaged stuff from China you can find on multiple products on amazon. I'd suggest getting whatever kit is cheapest that includes as many tools as possible. Read more
This kit worked perfectly! It had every tool we needed to take the dents out of our truck! Useful, and had more than what we needed. Definitely worth the buy! Read more
This is a decent basic kit to do some glue pulling. However when I tried the line light the suction cup would not stick to anything. Appears to me that the plastic in the cup is too hard to be flexible enough to stick to a panel. This makes the line light almost useless unless you just hold it to see where you are working. Pretty much impossible to use if you're pushing any dents with tools. Also it works off of USB and the cable is only about 3 foot long so you better have some kind of portable battery to plug into. Good assortment of glue tabs I thought and they work great. I feel with the cheap (unworkable) line light this kit is over priced for what you get. Read more
I have pulled probably 20 dents with this kit. The light is useless. Most of the glue tabs are too large for door dings. I have used the smallest one for most of the dents and it has held up for probably more that 100 uses. The glue gun is very chincey and probably wont last long. The puller is actually very nice and easily adjusts. Everything fits in the carrying bag very nicely. I would definitely buy this again. Read more
I finally got some time to use this tool, (in construction) even though I purchased it months ago. Worked okay for the first small dent, it's still very much noticeable. Long story short, two of the of the tools the H bridge puller and lifter both broke on me. Mainly the one that upset me the most was the lifter, it used some really cheap set screws inside that actually snapped inside when I was clamping the levers back and forth with my hands while pulling a dent out; with some bad timing is also when the glue came off causing the thing to fall onto my car making a deep scratch. On the plus side, all the small attachments it comes with are nice and well made. The hot glue gun is not the best, but it passes. Cons would be the terrible tools and not to mention the reflector that is utterly useless. Would not recommend this to anyone and I regret not trying this out sooner so I was still within the return period. If I ever attempt this again, I'll invest more in a higher priced set. Read more
