    Someone at WM hit my van. I'm hoping someone here has the tools and skills to pop this out, and I can get the paint fixed later. I'm hoping suction will work. Thanks, Skip

    are there creases?

    get a heat gun from harbor freight and a couple cans of compressed air.

    heat the dent, and around it, well.
    then use compressed air, upside down, and blast it.

    Basically how PDR works. vids on youtube

    Maybe try what rman is saying. Best I could do would be to tap it from the backside but the crease would never line up correctly.

    I appreciate the ideas guys. I'll give it a shot. I'm still not working so I've been using the van to run UBER. The riders can
    knock down my rating by complaining about damage. Thank you for the idea.

    if you do plan to bring it in, I have a few good shops in San Antonio i can refer you to.

    A heat gun and compressed air would probably pop about 70% of that dent out though. Paint will probably start to chip and flake
