Review on πŸš— Gliston 89pcs DIY Paintless Dent Repair Kit: Complete Car Hail Damage Removal Set with Slide Hammer and Dent Puller Tools by Michael Cormier

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good quality, large selection of tools.

Pretty cool set. The instruments themselves are of good quality, not great but definitely good enough. I went ahead and polished the blender attachments and hammer, they were a bit rough like new. I preferred the black glue and also preferred to let it set for a minute or two to avoid overstretching (I'm in North Texas). When you stall you really have to try to hit it back, and that's a skill I'm just not very good at as a beginner. Large selection of glue protrusions, I think a good technician can pull out most of the dents that can be pulled out with glue. considering this choice. I'm really illuminating the light board, you'll be able to see your highlights and find dents you didn't know about :) Keep in mind that glue tension is generally less accurate and you'll need more patience in comparison to based approach stick. However, a full set of quality rods is quite expensive and it is difficult for a beginner to know which rods you need. Or how to use them, let's face it. Overall there is a good range of tools in the kit and you have pretty much everything you need to try and patch all your dents. You need to add alcohol which wasn't included even though you got empty spray bottle. Update - I've added a few photos, the first 3 are the worst/deepest hailstorm I've ever had. I followed him with tape but got stuck because he started canning butter. I have a whale tail to get under the clamp and push from below. Most of the time not anymore, I sanded it down but went through the paint so it needs touching up. more stubborn dents. Overall I still think it's a good set. I didn't get professional results from my extensive hail damage, but I did it a little better. Also, now that I have the tools, I can always go back and try to make improvements if something doesn't suit me.
