    Paintless Dent removal. Any recommendations for sydney area?

    Hey everyone

    Just wondering if someone could recommend a paintless dent removal service for the sydney west area. I know there are a few companies like touch up guys that offer this service. Any recomendations on who to go with?

    Its only for a very minor dent in the front quarter panel that u can hardly see but since i've spotted it its really starting to get to me!

    Thanks any advice would be appreciated

    Dented car

    Hey

    The dent is only about 1cm in diameter at most and not very deep at all. Im pretty sure its been dented by someone opening their car door.
    As there is no paint removed, its hard to spot unless you get the right lighting behind it. I'll try and get some photos up.

    Thanks

    There is a place ("The Dent man")that does it behind the Holden in Victoria Ave Castle Hill. A mate had some work done there a few years ago and it was very good.

    yeh no probs, i wont be getting it fixed for a couple of weeks though (flying out to Hawaii tomorow for long overdue holiday!!!). I'll probably get it done pretty much as soon as i get back so i'll let you know how it goes.
    I dont know how or when/where it happened?! Im always super carefull where i park to the point of being obsessive, i literally never park next to other cars in carparks ie. i always find a single space or parallel park. i know... how sad is that.
    Anyways i'll let u know

    Hey just got the dent in my car fixed yesterday. I ended up taking it to dent man in castle hill. The guy did a really good job, took it in for a quote and he ended up fixing it on the spot. Only took about 10 mins and charged me $50. The panel is smooth as now. He sorta just slid a tool between the panel and the plastic wheel arch and pushed the dent out, so its a pretty non-invasive method i guess. Seemed really helpfull and professional overall.

    Hope that helps Flipper Dog!

    Thanks Kev,
    I will have to go over and see him.
    I have just got a dent on the roof (thanks to a branch that fell down while stopped at traffic lights) that needs fixing thanks to the winds we are having.
    $50 sounds like a great price as well.
