SataLommo use specialized tools like body picks and metal rods that apply pressure from the back-side of the dent. This allows them to push the dented area back to its pre-damage condition essentially or pull it back into shape. In some cases we use a glue system what means pulling dents from the outside. Because it is not considered an invasive technique, it does not damage the original coat of paint and requires no retouching or refinishing. SataLommo use over then 200 hooks from the all sides of the world in his work to get the best result for you.
