    so some of the local brats were playing a game involving a tennis ball last week, it hit my car twice leaving tiny dents that are barely noticable unless the car is clean and its sunny, there no more than an inch wide and only go in a little, but it annoys me, whats the best way to pop them back out ?

    Sounds like PDR (paintless dent removal) would work quite well here. It can be done if the paintwork isn't damaged and they just gently massage the dent out from the inside. They generally charge per panel but I don't know who does it around your neck of the woods

    You could try going into BnQ and getting a glass panel lifter - these are the heavy duty sucking pads. Get one about 2 inches in diameter and you might be able to pop them out yourself.

    If its not a double panel you could try removing the panel and push it out from behind

    dent magic are brilliant. not sure of their charges to the public but afaik they charge €50 per panel in the trade.

    Ive had mixed results from the dent removers in halfords. €30 for a stick of wax and a rope? They tend to leave marks on the car too.

    I recommend that paintless dent removal company, seen there ad on the city channel, looks good.
