Quick fix dings and scratches?

I was wondering if there are any good products out there that can pop a ding back in place (if that is even smart to do on your own). And if there are some do it yourself scratch buffers. I know my dealership can do it but they require that they wash the car before they do anything to it, and thats the last thing I want them to do. So any suggestions?

They won't let you wash the car and then use a QD when you arrive on that spot?

I saw a video once on the internet. It was a guy repairing a dent with a piece of dry ice. I personally never done or seen it in person.
Might be complete BS, but try it. If it does not work, you can then go to a shop. If it does work, you saved yourself money.

I guess I'll try method 2 tonight and report back later. No way I'm going to stick dry ice on my paint.

nothing works to remove dents perfectly. you can pop out a dent, but it will still look like crap unless you have a professional do it. dent masters, dent wizards, etc. can remove dents to just about perfect. look up a master tech in your area on google.

lol, don't blame you for not wanting to stick dry ice.
GL with your dents, hopefully it won't cost too much to repair
