I presume you're looking for somewhere to remove the dent and repair, which I'd suggest not using.

Painting outside, even with a tent over the vehicle will never get a finish like a proper body shop who will be able to get a top finish.

I'd imagine he's looking for someone to remove small car park dents that don't require paint.
The dent man uses a variety of small tools to ease the dents out.

You dont need a dent man! You can DIY Dents!

Guide:
1) Place boot against desired part of car.
2) Retract.
3) Release with required force.
4) New dent is born

Dave Wheal (Dent Devils) and his other guy Boris.

Boris is from Twickenham, Dave is from East Grinstead but cover fairly large areas. Both are spot on guys and they really know their metal.

Dave : 07740 561402

They both use traditional dent removal tools, and also glue pull / slide hammer techniques if needs be.
