Amazing results with body repair tools

I was a bit reluctant to purchase the Gliston 45 piece dent repair tool kit. I left my black 2013 Porsche exposed in my driveway for about 2 months while traveling last fall. My driveway is lined with trees and when I came back I had about 13 dents from acorns and debris that had fallen on the car from about 60 feet. The front fender on the driver's side has 6 damages, 2 of which are large and deep. The front hood had a deep dent in the center of the hood and another near the edge on the passenger side. The right fender had two shallow but large nicks, both rear fenders had large (quarter sized) dents, and the trunk had a deep but small dent in the center of the trunk. Every little thing stands out in the car. My body shop charges $250 per dent or dent with paintless dent repair (I've done this in the past but 1 or 2 at a time, not 13). I didn't like the look of my car and decided to try this kit. Watching YouTube videos is very important. This lets you get the hang of the basics, but you really learn by doing. I'm a perfectionist so if this set didn't work for me I would be forced to do it professionally. I've put about 7-8 hours into it and my car looks perfect except for a dent on the edge of the hood which I'm sure 1 or 2 more hauls will fix. The included glue gun works great, but you have to use glue sticks for it that are much thinner than usual. All components are of very good quality. I suggest you buy a set of hammers to knock down high places. 2 of the damaged areas I repaired had very small bulges from the last pull. I was able to level it using a set of plastic and rubber tipped hammers I bought. I couldn't be happier. I wish I could take before and after photos, but unfortunately it never occurred to me. Feel free to buy this kit, it works as described. You just need patience.
