We had an unfortunate parking lot mishap with my car, which gave me the perfect chance to try out this trick.

OMG! I needed this for the rear bumper on my car! I'm gonna show this to my hubby and see if he's game to try it!

I've been a mechanic for decades. I'd have said it needs a new cover from a yard, if it's a common color you might not have to paint it. I've learned to fix them with heat guns from pro videos but this was very enlightening. Two amateurs in about three minutes? You ladies are great, just going at it, right after it happened too. Thanks for a great video. I wish you were neighbors!

Excellent..a lot better than the heat gun method as you know its not going to overdo it and melt the plastic...but pour the water on first slowly..then get under the car...just worked on mine a treat.. couldn not use the the sink plunger method to suck on over the dent ...but used a rubber coated hammer handle to push it out...thanks girls...its a really wet day here in the tropics in Australia..and thats one job i got done today..looks much better..thanks

Awesome. Still VERY grateful that you taught me how to fix my wife's window regulator on our van. Now.... I wonder... how well will this work on the dent on the back of our lift gate on our red Town & Country? If I take the interior panel off and carefully disconnect all the wires and use hot water or a VERY careful use of the heat gun (and new body repair suction cups on the outside, with someone pulling the cups) will it work. Hmm??? There is a slight single crease which may not come out but I think the big dent ought to. Perhaps I should wait for the August Virginia heat to help me out. Anyway. Our kids have always been that helpful. I thank God for them every day. Happy and safe New Year to y'all.

One time, many years ago, I had another dent in the rear left bumper. I went to the grocery store one day and left the rear end pointed toward the sun. By the time I came out, the dent was gone! So, it's possible. Although I think your method could work too. Perhaps the biggest key is to keep the heat consistent for long enough. Maybe try that first, without taking the whole back interior panel off, and see if the heat alone makes it work it's way out.

OMG, on my dog walk tonight I saw a neighbor's car that has gotten dented in much the same way. It looked like it could be easily popped out and now I know how to do it!!! Can't wait to tell her! Thank you for posting this!!

@johnnynails671 6 ай бұрын

Just curious did your neighbor try it, and did it work?

@maryjones1 Жыл бұрын

Great result! I was hoping you would go underneath a bit, and allow us to see. It stands to reason that a strong push should help push it back out. Thinking of using the boiled water was a nice touch. In the 80s, I had a car made of metal, so used the moistened toilet plunger treatment, which worked like a charm. I am not sure if this would work on plastic or not. ,

@ChickFixUSA Жыл бұрын

I would have tried that if I couldn't push it from behind. Not sure I would have gotten a good seal on it though

That was great. Would love to see how you fix and paint or scrapes if you plan to do that yourself too ☺️

This car is 12 years old, so I doubt I will do too much with the paint.

I did the same thing but in the side door! Used hot water and a toilet plunger! Worked like a hot dam. and before hubby got home

I have seen that done with a heat gun, but you risk damaging the paint. Your idea seems to work better. 😊

Two CRAZY Chicks!! Boiling water, no safety clothing, gloves - PPE etc.... I was having kittens watching this!! You both are amazing, but there could have been some pretty serious repercussions - scalds, loss of eyesight, crushed "boobs"..... You have never worked in industrial or mining industries, safety always comes first. But 10/10 for your achievements, but please add a warning and safety recommendations.....
