How to Repair a Dented Door with Hot Glue

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Body

Here is an incredible method to repair a dent on a door using some hot water and hot glue. Pour very hot water over the dented area to warm the bodywork. While the area is still wet, with a support (preferably two) on which you will pour plenty of hot glue, press it onto the dented area and pull with all your strength. The dent will be lifted! At this point, you need to remove the glue with silicone thinner and polish the area with appropriate wax, and at that point, nothing will be visible, even if the dent was quite deep.
