You might try looking or posting in the bodywork.

That's where they have been talked about.

"My personal opinion only"

Those gimmicks seen on TV are just that, gimmicks. There are tolls similar for professional use but there use is very limited. It is designed to be used on a panel that was "popped" in but not door dings, dented, creased, or stretched metal. Those dings you have may be addressed by those hail damage experts that massage the metal from the backside. I would stay away from any product hawked as a cure all, especially from someone hollering into the camera "that it's so easy, anyone can do it!"

There is also a topic in Garage and Workshop forum where this "tool" was discussed.

Why didnt I invent this thing??????????? It makes so much sense!! I could be driving a new F350 by now!! The down fall of the system is adhesion. Trying to find something that sticks to the paint but can be removed after without damage to the painted surface. I hear that the system does not tend to stay stuck to a slick painted surface.
