    Got the dents removed from my tank

    Here is the before pic..you can see a golf ball size dent above the "Z" on the tank. There is also one to the left of the Suzuki emblem, was more of a crease. And one on top of the tank.



    Used these guys...he told me $150 if they fix it and no charge if they can't.

      Don't say can't, as anything is possible with time and effort, but, if you don't have time things get tougher and require more effort.

              Looks great! My hat's off to them. It would cost more then twice that to repair and repaint.

                So the guy made a tool to go inside the tank to push on the dent. But on the outside he has a kind of a vice that plugs on the outside of the tank...two plunge...rs stradle the out side of the tank and a third plunger id glued onto the dent....And they slowly pull the dent out. Very slowly.
                These guys are the only place in town...and there used to be 5 places but once you do the work like these guys do, no one else could compete.

                        That is seriously cool. I always look sideways at these mobile dent removers but there you go it does work.
