Has anyone any experience of this....(Paintless Dent Removal) with thier car ?
Is older thicker metal malleable enough ? Is older paint more or less prone to cracking ?
Any recommended companies ?
Cheers, Mark.

A mechanic put a ding in the wing of our XK150 (1957). We used a bodyshop in Edenbridge, Kent to pull it, worked perfectly, no problems whatsoever and the wing looks good as new.

I would have thought older, thicker metal would be better when removing dents. The thinner the metal, the more it tends to stretch. No idea on the paint though.
