Lattz,
Understood and why I said great video......it is nice to see what one can expect when using blocks. Many folks see them as a panacea for removing a dent, when in reality they can remove a little but rarely remove the dent the completely, because of the nature of deformation of the metal. Thus the bump dolly or the addition of a small amount of filler to cover the "dimple", in my estimation in the end not worth the effort if one has to fill and repaint to get rid of the dent.
Personally, if I were to go down that route (slight filler) I would skip the blocks and lightly tap down the high spots and then fill.
Best, Ben
