I have a car with a few minor dents on it. I'd rather fix it myself then take it in to get it worked on by a professional. I was wondering if anyone has used a pneumatic dent puller similar to this? Do they work?

i am a panel beater.
it depends on how big the dents are
if they are pretty small then you will need to use the tool
if the dent is a big one then you might be able to push it out from the other side.
if they dont have creases

dents that have creases have hardened and will require some beating and then filled. If it's shallow then that will work. Be sure to follow directions. I've seen some pretty big dents that have pulled out just by hand after gaining access behind fender aprons. I like to try that before thinking about taking paint off. Some controlled heat is good for dentless I think cause it helps the paint from not cracking.

good luck
