How to remove a dent from your Toyota car!

Removing a dent from your car can be a tricky and daunting task. However, it’s necessary to keep your whip looking brand new. There are various DIY methods that you can do yourself instead of having to pay for a costly Clermont Toyota auto repair. All you need are a couple of tools and some elbow grease to get that pesky dent out of your ride. Luckily, Toyota of Clermont is here with the best methods on how to remove a dent. Let’s dive in!

Tip #1 Pull out the plunger!

Removing a dent with a plunger might make you laugh at the thought of that. However, you actually can use a plunger to do just that! You should be sure to use a cup plunger and not a flange plunger. You’ll need to wet the plunger before trying to remove that old dent. 

Tip #2 Boiling water. 

Since most car bumpers are made out of plastic, this makes boiling water perfect to remove a dent on your whip. Just go ahead and pour it over the Clermont Toyota dent and it should pop out! 

Tip #3 Dry ice. 

Another method is to use dry ice. Just take the dry ice and rub it over the dent. This should make it pop out and look brand new again! Just be sure to wear some safety gloves so you don’t get burnt in the process. 

Tip #4 Hair dryer.

Ladies, this one is for you! Use that hair dryer and blow away at the dent. Toyota of Clermont is sure that this will make that dent come out in a jiffy! However, if this method doesn’t work, you might need a Clermont Toyota auto service technician to help. 

Tip #5 Hot glue, wooden dowels, and screws. 

Another way to remove a dent is to take a screw and place it in the wooden dowel. Then, you’ll want to use hot glue to glue these suckers on! Once everything is dry, use that below grease and pull away. Keep in mind this might ruin the paint on your car, so be careful. However, if you happen to mess up your paint, our Clermont Toyota auto service technicians can put a fresh layer on for you! 

Tip #6 Metal rod and rubber knockdowns. 

Another great way to remove a dent is to take a metal rod and place it inside the body of the dent. After that, take the two rubber knockdowns and place them on each side and begin to use the tools to push the dent out. 

Tip #7 Toyota tool kit. 

If all else fails, go ahead and purchase a tool kit from the Clermont Toyota auto parts store. Just follow the instructions and you’re good to go!
