Ding King Twist A Dent Repair Kit

Pros: Pulls minor dents, reasonably easy to do
Cons: Very narrow range of dents it can fix, won't fix fully

I had a small but noticeable dent in the fender and I wanted a cheap way to mostly fix it before committing to a full body shop. Dent King can do some jobs, but not all. For what it does, it's a pretty good product. If you fall into the category where it ...

Pros: Works on mild dents without damaging paint.
Cons: Requires patience and can't help stretched metal.

I bought both kits to pull out a long dent in my Infiniti. Ding King pulls out dents with greater force than Pops-A-Dent because of the larger diameter pull head, sturdier bridge, and stickier glue. I put aside the plastic Pops-A-Dent bridge after couple ...

Pros: A neat idea. The glue used for the bolt did not harm the finish.
Cons: It didn't work. It popped off repeatedly without effecting the dent.

I bought this product after striking a deer. My hood and front side-panel had good-sized dents in them and given the price of body work, I thought I'd at least give the Ding King a try. The product comes with an electric glue gun, which is used to ...

Pros: Can fix the "unfixable" dents. Gets the job done on cars and stainless appliances!
Cons: Hot glue gun is pretty cheap.  You go through a lot of glue fast.

I originally bought the Ding King about six or seven years ago to repair a dent on my Mustang after someone let a shopping cart roll free in a supermarket parking lot.  It was a used car when I bought it so I didn't want to spend a lot of money on ...

Pros: Pulled the dent out with no harm to the paint
Cons: Glue is hard to get off the tank and off the suction cup thing.

I bought a 1986 honda rebel and apparently someone on the street was playing baseball and the ball hit the gas tank and put a dent the size of a baseball in it. Well i bought it and just thought i'd try this on it before bondoing the dent. At first it ...

Pros: Economical, easy to use
Cons: Glue may not be strong enough for strong applications

I read many reviews on the Ding King Dent Removal Kit before I purchased it.I had some doubts it would work, but the alternative was paying a body shop $300.00 plus to fix the 3 inch by 2 inch dent in my wife's Mazda Miata. The instructions were easy ...

Pros: Works as advertised. Will do the job for soft dents. Easy to use/easy directions.
Cons: Time consuming and wished for more glue sticks and taps for pulling.

My car received 20 - 30 dime to tennis ball hail dents in a recent storm. For $20 bucks, I figured it would be worth a try. I got the product at a local auto parts store. One clerk said he'd heard they work - another guy just kind of laughed about it. ...

Pros: 21 bucks with tax. Will pull out the dents up to 90%
Cons: MAKES NEW DENTS!!!!Glue Gun Sucks!!!SAVE YOUR MONEY for the bodyshop.

I purchased the Ding King to remove 4 dents the size of quarters on my Acura RL left fender. I bought this kit from Pepboys for 19.99+tax=21 bucks and some change. I followed the instructions to the letter and was able to pull out one of the dents-but ...

Pros: None.
Cons: Everything.

After reading the reviews, prior to this one, I decided to purchase the Dent King Twist A Dent Repair Kit.
First off, my dent is about the size of a quarter, I followed the directions, and this waste of twenty dollars did not fix my dent. Instead, it left sticky glue on my car, which took a half hour to remove, and left scratches in my paint.
So if you want to add scratches to accentuate the dent in your car, please buy the Dent King. Otherwise go to a body shop and hire some overpaid body shop worker to remove the dent for you.

By the way, Billy Mays is scary, and should not be on the box.

Pros: Quality components, does do what if says on a limited basis.
Cons: sticker gets worn on a few tries. could do with more glue sticks

Ding King helps but cannot remove the 'edge' of a dent which was causing be a falling glass jar.


Tried a few times, and gradually the dent lessened (dent is about 1 in. long and 1/2in. wide near a edge), so the product does work,

Would help if the product would stick longer on stainless steel.. Any ideas?


Heard that heat might help in stainless steel,, any ideas,??

Pros: Nothing
Cons: 1) customer service 2) burned clearcoat off my vehicle

Unfortunately a small branch fell on my black, shiny, MR2 Sypder a few months back. A small dent "large ding" remained on the quarter panel. I purchased Pops-A-Dent.
I followed the directions step-by-step (I'm a math teacher!)

The device kept "popping" off and did not improve the ding.
It did however burn the paint on my car. The clear coat was burned off and it looked horrible. I got the car fixed for $500.

I attempted to contact Pops-A-Dent by phone and via email. I was hoping to get a refund for the $20 that i paid for the item. No response.

A company who does not even answer a diplomatic request has something to hide. Bad product! Very poor customer service! I took a $500 chance! Never again!

Pros: The concept seems logical and should work better than it does.
Cons: Toss the glue gun. Doesn't work if you have a really small dent.

Bought the kit at Pep Boys for a small door ding about the size of a dime. Started by reading the instructions all the way through. Then plugged in the glue gun that came with the kit and inserted the glue stick. The gun heated for 20 minutes as I tried to get some glue out the heated end. Never could get it to work so got another glue gun which worked great. Probably best to start with a good glue gun rather than try to get this time waster to work.

Then the glue would not stick well enough to pull the dent. I can see the panel deform slightly, but it won't stay out as the glue lets go. However, this problem may be due to the small dent. A larger dent would probably be easier to work.

Read some comments about the glue not releasing. I used alcohol (rubbing not drinking) and softly and carefully rubbed the glue with a soft cloth in a circular motion. The glue came off easily and left a clean (still dented) surface.

Pros: None
Cons: Bad glue gun

I could not even get the hot glue gun to work. The glue sticks would not work with the gun. The gun got hot, but the glue sticks would not enter the head of the glue gun and no glue would come out. Since I could not even get past the first step, I do not even know if it would pull a dent out. This is a piece of garbage, which is where I ended up throwing it.

Pros: Works if you use the cleaner/solvent--even on clean-looking stainless steel.
Cons: This probably won't work on some of the older thermos bottles with thicker metal.

My son had a stainless-steel thermos jug that was dented so the outer layer touched the inner. I was skeptical, but we tried Ding King. Not much happened until the fourth try, when the dent came out almost completely! I was amazed and he was happy.
It saved the price of a new thermos.
