A proper repair involves straightening the metal to very close to original shape. This is done with body sheetmetal tools such as hammers and dollies, spoons, etc. There are extremely few spots on a Celica where you truly can't get at the back of a panel. In those places pros use tack-welded studs to pull the dent.
Body filler should not be over 1/16" thick anywhere if the repair was done correctly. |
