In the photo with the studs welded to the cab is that the spitznickel(SP?) Method of dent removal?

I don't want to give em a heart-attack. That is what would happen if I answered the door in the buff. Heck it almost scares me to death when I step out of the shower and look in the mirror.~Mancar1~

re: my project update..
I never hear that word (spitznickel),but yes i use a electric stud welder gun.
were you first grind the damage area to bare metal. Insert stud welding tip.Insert stud and press gun against damage panel until ring touches.
Keep a firm contact between the gun and the bare metal.
then press the trigger for one half to one second,once I weld the stud,
I slip the puller slidehammer over welded stud and steady pull on handle
and tapping damaged area, this method will remove most dents.
to remove studs,snip cutters and grind off the remaining head.I love it !

Sounds better than the old fashioned beat it smoother/flatter then pull it 75-90% out and fill with bondo(bondo ooooj Yuck!).
