If you want to learn how to do this, the tools are available from Eastwood, probably others. You would probably best get a few fenders from a junkyard, and practice popping the small dents out of them. No doubt there are YouTube videos that would help too.
But, yeah, if you paid yourself minimum wage to do the practice to get good, you would have to pop a lot of dents out to "break even" compared to just hiring a pro for the car you have.
If you hire a pro, you might consider having him work over more than one car, might get a better deal for your money that way.
From what I am reading, this is not a amateur task. and even though this is my 'B' car, I will concede that his is not something for me to do on 'A', 'B', or 'C'.
Thanks for the input.
Friend of mine is great at it and his own company has every high end dealership in Milw, it's not an amateur thing. Guys will chase storms and make $300k+ for summer season.

Yes, I agree, the return per ding makes this something not worth my time to learn. 11 Dings on 'B', 0 on 'A' and unknown (although I don't remember seeing any) on 'C' make this a once in 5-10 year proposition.
My one son has an 08 Ram pickup that is spotless, but he had a couple of little dings that were driving him nuts. He had one of the Dent Dr guys come to his work and the guy got them out right in the parking lot. I think the tab was like $200 for all of it. Can't even tell where they were.
