My friend had something like that similar on his prelude on his hood and trunk from hail from the previous owner. Dont know if he got rid of it before he sold it but if theres a lot of them there id imagine you couldnt do much since their so small. Is it that noticeable? Do you have any pics of it?

Its usually best left to the professionals. stop in to some of the paintless dent removal places and get quotes. Most are pretty reasonable and do fantastic work.

Do you think it would work on hail damage? I'm afraid it might make it harder for the professionals to remove the dents, if it doesn't remove it 100%.
