Whilst the car was in my garage the wind blew a light aluminium stepladder on to the Hyundai drivers door and put a very small dent in the panel... (about 7 inches down from the window line). To all intents and purposes it looks just like a ding caused by a careless parker opening their door on to mine.
I took the door card off and the dent is behing an inner metal panel... I can reach it with my hand via an opening in the metal inner panel but can't easily get anything on it to push the dent out. There's a patch of black rubbery sound deadening immediately behind the dent so you cant feel the dent
I rung a dent removal bloke who was recommended to me and haven't had a reply so need to look further. There are millions of them. Some are franchisees attached to national companies and, I guess, some are sole traders.
There's loads of stuff on Youtube about the mini-lifter hot glue puller method. You can buy various kits for anything from £3 (on AliExpress) up to hundreds of pounds for the real thing. Some include a slide hammer some just the bridge etc.
A further complication is the door panel has been sprayed a few years ago and I see that it might not be recommended to try the glue method on a sprayed panel.
Any recommendations and any idea what I might expect to pay to get it sorted|?
