We quickly and cheaply remove a small dent on the car body with the help of a plunger.
A snowball, a soccer ball, a cart from a supermarket thrown at will or a minor road accident can cause an unfortunate nuisance – a dent, the removal of which in the workshop will cost a penny”, informs Ukr.Media.
But a small damage can be repaired by yourself without spending a lot of money.
Let’s make a reservation right away, the proposed method is appropriate only if a dent has formed on a flat surface. It is almost impossible to pull out the edges or the edge, and the body damaged in this way can only be replaced. Or, as they say, rely on a thick layer of putty, paying also for painting. If there is nothing like that, feel free to undertake the repair yourself.
To restore such damage, you need a heating device (for example, a hair dryer), a suction cup and a certain amount of patience.
A home hair dryer, unfortunately, will not give us the surface warming effect we need, it will not have enough power. If you can’t find a construction hair dryer within arm’s reach, it’s no problem, you can and should use an ordinary kettle. Hot water will bring the metal or plastic to the desired temperature. By the way, only hot water is enough for the bumper: when heated, the plastic part usually returns to the shape set at the factory by itself.
But the metal needs help: a suction cup is needed, the more powerful and larger the better. You won’t find one with a fire on the garage shelf, but you can find it in any bathroom. People call it a plunger. Yes, yes, the same rubber product for cleaning pipes that your grandfather bought.
So, after carefully cleaning the dent with running water – grains of sand can cause scratches, and road reagents will not give suction to stick properly – we start the restoration process.
After skipping and one by one emptying a couple or three kettles of hot water on the damaged part, we mold the piston so that it completely sticks and make the first one – sharp and calibrated dash. We should start from the edge: the task of doing everything from the first time is not in front of us.
Step by step, the damage will begin. The main thing is to regularly wash the work area with hot water and not to lose willpower after the first failures.
The plunger is a tool that has been tested for decades, and its handle is ideally suited for the dent repair process. By the way, in order to improve the «adhesion properties», the rubber tip should also be scalded with hot water.
