how can i take a dent out of my deep freezer doop

This happened to me. I took all the inside of it out such as the sellves and then the rubber sourrounding it. The then took out the screws holding the inner panel. Finally used a small rubber mallett and NOT hammered but pushed the dent outwards. I doesn't look bad.

If you are going to do this then take your time, don't rush the job and make sure you check just how much is being pushed out. I got the someone to press the front of the dent with a flat plastic chopping board.
The other idea is to buy a dent puller but they are usually too big.

Try using a suction dent puller. These are the same things as are used to carry plate glass. You can buy a set of two 11.5 cm and two 5.5 cm pullers for less than £8.00 including postage. Have a look on e-bay. If the dent was caused by something sharp the metal may have stretched in which case you'll need to fill it the same way you would a car. If all else fails get a large fridge magnet to cover it.
