Kingham body damage
Slight damage to my Kingham motorhome , it's the same position as the BBQ point , only on the drivers side , l need to get to the opposite side of the damage to alleviate the need for body filler,
anybody got any ideas , quite a lot of window blind /panelling to take off .Cheers Ron

Re: Kingham body damage
I have successfully pulled dents from the outside using one of the cheap kits that use hot glue to stick a ' stud' to the paintwork and then a frame draws the panel out attached to the stud. A hairdryer or heat gun then removes the stud ready for reuse. If panel is creased badly it might not work but worth a try as accessing inside panel behind furniture etc can be a nightmare involving removal of furnishings and is time consuming. Would certainly minimise filling required before refinishing.

Could you use Dent Dr ,I have just had them do a dent in the car wing ,cost £50 and is a very good finish and a lot cheaper than a body shop

I agree with Kaspian, looked at one to help a mate out at our local motor factor the other day, nicely engineered and even included the hot glue gun, a whole £12:50p!
Or, use dent doctor as Chris says, anything but stripping any MH interior!

With kaspian and Ian, it worked on the wing of our Land Rover Defender and believe me that is not like the metal on a flimsy motorhome.

BTW A pic of the damage would be a big help.
