Geli 45pcs Paintless Dent Repair Tool Dent Puller Kit, Adjustable Width, Pops a Dent Car Dent Removal Kit, PDR Golden Lifter, Bridge Puller& Glue Gun for Automobile Body Motorcycle Refrigerator Washer

My wife's car was hit in a parking lot and they left before she got back. There were no creases in the metal so I thought maybe I could do this. I decided to watch a lot of YouTube videos on using these before I made a purchase and I'd suggest everyone do the same. From what I saw, this kit seemed like it would do what I needed. I'll share some pros and cons at the end.The kit arrived with no issues and I came up with a way to practice before getting started. I have a 25 year old Tacoma that has a few dings. I started there and learned a few things.First the biggest investment you need to make is time. The dents don't come out in one pull. Also, if you don't wait long enough for the glue to cool, You've wasted time and glue.I found that starting with the bigger tabs was best. The metal dent lifter is strong and what I used the most. The the plastic puller works ok, but it's not as strong. The advantage it has is that the feet are farther apart and can help getting larger dents started.As you progress it gets a little challenging to see where you need to make your next pull from. On videos they show expensive lights you can get that do a great job. I found that a six in metal ruler, held across the dent, does a nice job of showing where your low spot is. If you have a metal putty knife or anything you are sure is straight, that should be just as good. Having a pencil to track your low spots to glue comes in handy too.My pros & cons on this kit.It came with an alcohol bottle, but it was empty as noted. Perhaps trying to ship it is a challenge, but no big deal as long as you are prepared. Alcohol is a must have to use the kit. A lesson learned was that 70% alcohol doesn't work well at all. Get 90% or better.The kit comes with two different glue sticks but no mention of what to use or when. I'm still not an expert here but I found that the black seems to separate as one piece when it releases, more often than the yellow. Also that it was easier, for me, to work with the black adhesive on the tabs on the white plastic puller that the ones on the metal unit. This is only because getting the black glue off the curved tabs on the metal puller seemed more difficult. You may have different results.Some reviews were critical of the glue gun. I had no issues. I had a spare already, but didn't need it. Do be sure to give it 10-15 minutes before you start by getting it plugged in before you do anything else.The kit includes a tap that seems a bit questionable. In videos I watched they were soft plastic or leather tipped. This one is plastic and comes top a point. I avoided using this as it seemed like it should have more of a rounded surface.Summary: Overall, the repair I did with this kit on the car was perfect. I have some more hail damage on the Tacoma I'll get back to, and maybe even get it painted after I'm done. There are larger more expensive kits available, but this one did everything I needed. If anything an upgrade to the plastic tap would be nice, but you can get those separately if needed.Hope all that helps.Oh, one more suggestion. If you have more than one dent try to work on both at the same time. The reason for that is the time you need to wait on the glue to cool down adds up. If you have two, or more, tabs cooling down at the same time, you are saving a lot of time on waiting.

When you look at the picture it looks like your getting a lot. The white tool will work once or twice the nut inside has so few threads it get damaged after a few uses. The handle also will spin on the nut. So you have to buy a new nut which is a strange size neither metric or standard!!! The white tool also has so much flex it bottomed out because it was so flexible. The big yellow tool is nice!! The rest of the stuff is essentially junk. The glue is sub par I ended up having a buy new glue which worked much better. The plastic "pullers" are ok but theres a only a couple that seem thought out in design could easily be bought separately. The rest of the product is filler. So your basically getting the yellow puller and few plastic tabs for it.

So this is a solid kit to get if you need a couple small dings taken out. I did notice a few things while attempting to remove dents outta my beemer. 1. It most def matters where the dent is. Hoods, trucks, middle of doors, all easy to pull as the metals thing without many supports near the dent. 2. Let the glue dry at least 2 mins, but no longer than 4/5 min. 3. If your car's clear coat is wearing off or thin, dont use this, itll rip the paint off without a good level of clear coat. 4. Use 90% or above alcohol as the glue will come off way easier. and finally 5. Patience....a ton of it. You will be spending time on each dent. Took me 1.5 hours to take care of like 3 dents due to the learning curve and figuring out the optimal glue drying times (2.5 min for me). I had a dent from a golf ball and it for real took an hour bcuz it was deep and on the back A panel by the gas tank, so thick metal and deep. Took 25 pulls about for just that one to get to 1/4th the depth it was before. I couldnt even get it out but I havent tried to black glue yet. But for 35$? Well worth the money.

What I like:It does work once you get the method down. Some reviewers say it doesn't work at all. I had the same experience at first. It works really good now with some learning curve and additions to the kit. Here are the keys I found to getting it to work. 1. get the glue hot. Let the gun heat for 10 minutes or so, even though they say it is ready after 3 to 5 minutes. 2. let the glue dry for at least 5 minutes. I started letting it set for 10 minutes(sometimes overpulls though). 3. if the kit is the $52 kit it doesn't have the tap down pen. Get one of these for about $9, it is worth it and works like a charm to fix the overpulls. 4. get some different glue tabs. It was taking me 5 or more pulls to get a small hail dent out. There is only one tab small enough to work on hail dents or door dings in the whole kit. With the timings I give above that is an hour per dent, ridiculous. I ordered a tab set for about $15 and it had another 5 small tabs that I could use. All of these tabs worked much better than the original one in the kit. The dents pull on the first or second try most of the time now. I have about 100 hail dents so this made me very happy.What I don't like:I had to buy extra tabs and then found the original tabs don't work well compared to other brands. I can only speak to the smallest tab in performance. I think the kit should have more small tabs, especially since the description says that one of it's functions is for hail dents. The glue gun in the kit is not a standard size. It works fine, but when you run out of glue sticks and order more sticks of the same brand as the kit, they don't fit the gun. There are apparently standard size and mini size. I have not been able to find the mini size sticks, only the 11mm standard sticks. So, I had to buy a new glue gun as well.In summary, the kit with additions works pretty well. But being sold as a "kit" I would have expected there to be everything for it to work well. The key word is well. I was able to get it to pull dents as the original kit, but very inefficiently. 5 plus tries for a single dent, after getting the process down. I had to spend another $40 on additional pieces to get the system to work "well".
