Any easy way to get rid of dings?
Probably not but I figured id ask. Not sure if you guys remember that hail storm we had a few weeks back...anyway my hood got a few good ones on it in the process. Only a few weeks after the new paint  . Didnt even get a chance to get my cover . This might be a good excuse for a new hood but I had a few other plans before that.

There are guys who do dent removal, come right to your house and within 5 minutes your dings are gone. I have a guy coming to pull the couple small dings out of my camaro this week. What part of jersey are you from?

the paintless dent removal works good as long as there arent creases in the dings...if it has too much of a crease they wont be able to properly remove it without taking the chance of damaging the paint. then again if it has a crease the paint will probably crack anyway.
as for price, i have seen some guys that have a price "per ding" and some that have an hourly rate. i would call the body shop that did your paint and ask them if they have any recommendations for paintless dent removal

The price I was given was 75 which I believe is hourly rate. I told him that I have maybe 2 tiny little dings in my car and he said not a problem. I'll let you know when he comes and does it how it all goes and see if he travels your way. There are others in jersey that travel if he doesnt though

I did a little research into that and they did say that might screw up your clear coat...especially seeing I have new paint.

Too lazy to retype, he did a great job on a dent on my 77 Z228

Not cheap is an understatement...Called a few places and they'll come to you for 75.00-100.00.
