Dent!!!!

hmm i dunno if it was rock. or hail a while ago that hit and dented my front hood....it wasnt that apparent. i meant you had to look for it. But most of u . like me. bugged the hell out of me... Went to Kragens see if they have any miracle fix without veil.. the Kragen employee told me to look for Dent Wizard they take out dents on any car...

When i called them. www.dentwizard.com and look for your city and state. the lady was real helpful.. they work on body. (metal service) no bumper. but everywhere else. 1) dent has to be 3 inches from border of that body part. 2) paint crack or gone? they not responsible for paint damage if it was already cracked.

The guy came 2 days later with his truck.. he got a steel probe under the hood. into 1 of the 4 opening near front of the hood... poke the dent out. so it was a bruise. i was then he assure me.. he took out a small hammer with some special nail or naillike tool. hammer the bruise down delicately. then he probe it upward again. then hammer it . all this process was repeated for nearly 30 mins....

At this time. the surface of the carhood. the CLEARCOAT. (not the paint) developed small hairline crack. from all the motion. he assure me this is normal and what clearcoat is for. to protect the paint..HE took out a can of sealant or something that he said seals the crack and clear coat. and had a buffing machine to massage it in. guess what?

after he was allllllllll done. i bent down. 360 degrees looking for the dent and crack (it was a sunny day) no matter what angle. light reflection i look . i CAN NOT find an trace of that dent. it is completely gone. forever. its been a months now. with car wash. and i wax the car regular activity. the DENT remains GONE forever!!!! and paint is good as always...!

I just want to share this with all of you TSX lovers like me

Yep, they do good work. I had over 100 small dents from a hail storm and they got rid of every single one. I searched for a long long time and couldn't find a dent at all. I wonder what kind of sealant he used?
