Question paintless dent repair in Laughlin

I'm seriously thinking about bringing my tools with me so I can remove some small dings & dents from my fellow fanatics rides
the proceeds would go to Mike in AZ's grand kids (if that's ok with him)
I can help a lot of people in a reasonable amount of time as long as I don't take on large challenging dents or 'project' trucks (ones that have had the misfortune of being repeatedly dented all over)
I'd like to help everyone but I don't want to become overwhelmed.

any advise or comments would be appreciated

I know I can use your help with a couple very small dents in the tailgate. I would suggest you be the judge of what you can do which would provide the greatest distribution of your talents once you see what is requested.

Can you make the Woodward Dream Cruise this year? I still have two small ones that need to be repaired.

good idea, Mike...

... put me at the top of your list please! Tim put a dent in my right front fender trying to see where the 'clunk' was coming from... the clunk is fixed and part of the dent popped out on its own but some is still there would much rather give my $$ to a fellow fanatic than a dent guy I've never seen before and hopefully never again...

Thanks for the offer

That fund is a real blessing to the boys' mom. She's managed to only use it a couple times, but it has been a consistent sense of security for her. It looks like she'll be dipping into it in about 3 weeks to cover some day care gaps.

If you have lots of room, go ahead and bring your tools........ but make yourself only responsible for working during the show-and-shine or during the tech session. Otherwise, you'll never get any peace and end up spending the whole weekend working. That's not what we're there for......... trust me.

Regards,

Mike

I have a couple of dents that need attention, but I'll be happy if you can get the one in my SSR hood taken care of! Unlike my dents, the one in the SSR hood is small and shallow. Add my R to your list?

I would also like to have a small tailgate ding fixed and would be glad to support a very good cause instead of a dent shop we don't know. Thanks, this will be much appreciated if you can do it.

Thumbs up Thanks a million.......................

Cleaned up the GQ and got to that one special place that has been pi$$ing me off for so long and a smile came over my face...

It's gone....and after a closer I can't tell were it was....

You are an artist at your work...

Thanks again Mike...

Mike, thanks so much for fixing my 'factory' hood. Kudos for busting your tail all day long on fixing all the dents. You are truly an artist. Thanks for making the proceeds from your efforts a donation to the 'fund'.
