Seems nearly every time I leave my Cub in a maintenance hangar someone puts a few more finger dents in my boot cowl. I'm not talking about the toe bangs a line boy can put in front of the windshield, thinking he's fueling a C185. These are little dents that end up on the lower boot cowl. The fact that Piper used soft tempered sheet metal with only slightly more stiffness than a alum. turkey pan doesn't help matters. And it got me to wondering if anyone has tried one of those 'as seen on T.V' dent pullers. Or is the metal so soft - compared to an automobile - they will make more dents on either side of the one you are trying to remove?
