GLISTON DIY Paintless Dent Repair Kit 89pcs Dent Puller Tools Slide Hammer PDR Tools for Car Hail Damage Dent & Ding Remover

This is a pretty cool kit. The tools themselves are good quality, not great, but definitely good enough. I went ahead and polished the knockdown tips and blender hammer, they we a bit rough as new. I preferred the black glue, and I also preferred only letting it set for a minute or 2 to avoid over-pulling (I'm in north Texas). If you over-pull you have to really work at knocking it back down and this is a skill I'm just not very good at as a newb. Great selection of glue tabs, I think a good tech could pull most glue-pullable dents given this selection. I really light the light board, you'll be able to tell where your high spots are and find dents you didn't know were there :) Keep in mind that in general glue pulls are less precise and you will need more patience vs a rod-based approach. A full set of quality rods is pretty expensive though, and its hard for a new guy to know what rods you'd need. Or really how to use them, let's be honest. Overall the kit has a good selection of tools, and you have pretty much everything you need to attempt glue pulls of all your dents. You'll need to add alcohol which was not included, although they did give you an empty spray bottle. Update - I added a few pics, the first 3 are of the worst/deepest hail dent I had. I went after it with the glue tabs but got stuck because it started oil-canning. Got a whale tail tool to get under the brace and push from underneath. Mostly gone now, I sanded it down but went through the paint so it'll have to be touched up. 4th picture is my hood, I did the hood last, my skills were better than when I started, but I highlighted one of the more stubborn dents. Overall I still think this is a nice kit. I did not achive professional results with my extensive hail damage, but I did make it quite a bit better. In addition, now that I have the tools, I can always go back and attempt improvements if something jumps out at me.

This product is very simple and straightforward in application and use. It has a great range of utility, and performs admirably well. Any compression dent is easily repaired. Now if they'd only come up with a product that removed sharp edge creases as easily!

Using this kit to pull some dents from my vintage VW van. The glue, tabs and tools are obviously not professional level quality, but they do a very good job. My only complaints are that the hot glue gun runs very hot after several minutes, essentially pushing out boiling glue onto the tab, which creates a very strong bond (which may be a feature for some people) and the suction cup for the light is not useable. Not a big deal: I rigged the light to something else, and I'll just use my existing hot glue gun. Having said all this, I think the kit is good value.

This kit has all the tools you'll want for doing a hot glue type dent removal. I put a nice monster set of dents from turning too sharp and smacking a pole in the side of my brand new transit van. I was able to pull out the small dents and over time was able to get the big dent and it's children dents pretty close to normal again. For all the dents one go didn't work - I had to sit there for an afternoon and repeatedly stick the pads onto the van and pull them out. The tools provided work pretty well. The least effective tool for me was probably the bridge puller tied with the slide hammer - both those I didn't use at all. I tried the slide hammer but it is long so it's hard to pull completely perpendicular with the pad. What's nice about it though is that it disassembles so you get 2 T style pullers. The T style pullers were great for the bigger dent. I could just sit there and pull on those hard but not hard enough to rip the pads out and that eventually really helped get the majority of the big dent out. The T pullers and the big anodized aluminum tool were the most effective in my case. The hammers and taps that come with the kit are also super useful. I twas able to hammer out what was almost a crease in the panel, and that helped the big dent come out even more. The pads included were really nice because there were some big ones all the way down to really small ones... so as the dents got pulled out more I could switch to the smaller pad and refine the result even more. Overall this is a good kit... but it is just the same repackaged stuff from China you can find on multiple products on amazon. I'd suggest getting whatever kit is cheapest that includes as many tools as possible.

I'm a DIY body and paint guy and have been for 30 years. However, PDR was something I never tried before. Decided to buy this kit after getting hail damage on one of my custom cars. I didn't get perfect results removing all the dings but I don't blame anything on the tool kit for that. The steel on my older classic cars is heavier than newer cars. My paint jobs use more coats of primer and paint than a new car has too and could have affected my results. I still had to re paint my panels but I didn't have to use any filler and that really made a big difference. As far as the kit goes, it gives you everything you need and even more so. I only need to use the smaller of the pull tabs for the dings. It was handy have the multiple styles of pulling tools. I used them all. I really liked the slide hammer puller and I used the squeeze handle puller a lot too.
