FAQs
What size dents can this puller handle?
This dent puller is best suited for minor to small dents. It is not designed for large, deep, or creased damage.
Can I use this on plastic bumpers?
It depends on the finish of the plastic bumper. If the surface is smooth and non-porous, it may work. Textured or heavily scratched plastic may not create a sufficient seal.
How do I clean the suction cup?
Wipe the suction cup with a damp cloth after each use. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could degrade the rubber.
What is the recommended way to store the dent puller?
Store it in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to preserve the integrity of the suction cup.
Is this tool safe for painted surfaces?
Yes, when used correctly on a clean, smooth surface, it is generally safe for automotive paint finishes. However, always test in an inconspicuous area first if you are concerned.
What is the diameter of the suction cup?
The suction cup has a diameter of 115mm.
Troubleshooting
Dent puller not holding suction
Ensure the surface is clean and smooth. Check the rubber seal of the suction cup for any debris or damage. Make sure the handles are fully engaged and locked.
Limited pulling power
Verify the surface is non-porous. Ensure the entire edge of the suction cup is sealed. Try pulling with a steady, consistent motion rather than a sharp jerk.
Tool feels flimsy
While made of hi-impact nylon, this tool is designed for minor repairs. For deep or complex dents, professional tools or services may be required.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure the surface of the dent or material to be lifted is clean and free from debris. Place the dent puller firmly over the area, ensuring a complete seal. Engage the quick-release handles by pushing them down until they lock, creating suction.
Compatibility: This tool is compatible with smooth, non-porous surfaces. This includes most automotive paint finishes (free of scratches or rust), glass, polished metal, and certain plastics. It is not effective on rough, textured, or porous surfaces.
Care: After each use, clean the suction cup and handles with a damp cloth. Store the dent puller in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, which can degrade the rubber over time. Periodically inspect the suction cup for any signs of wear or damage.
