Paintless repair works on some dents, and says so · review
A rod set, not a glue set: ten stainless rods in graded shapes to push a dent out from behind, which is how paintless repair is actually done professionally.
The last word The proper method, if you can get behind the panel. Practice on something that does not matter.
A twenty-piece paintless dent removal set with ten stainless rods graded B2 to B11, a rubber hammer, hooks, a chain and a knock-down tool.
Because pushing from behind is how the panel wants to return. It gives the most control over exactly which part of the dent moves, and it leaves nothing on the paint.
Access. A door skin can usually be reached through the window aperture or a trim panel; a roof or a quarter panel often cannot be reached at all. That is the first question, before technique.
Slow progress at first. Rod work is a skill, and the difference between a repair and a ripple is practice on something that does not matter.

Rods push from behind and give the most control, where access exists. Glue pulling works from outside and is far easier to learn. Professionals use both, and access is what decides which.
Pushing a dent out usually creates a small high spot. The knock-down tool taps that high spot back flush, and without one a repair goes from concave to convex.
