Checking for dents in used cars by owner
A car is more or less a high tech tin can and like a tin can it does get dents. However used car owners tend to cover up those dents with filling and paint. This is ok if there are only a few small dents however its not very good if huge holes in the car have been filled up and made to look like tiny tends that can be pushed out. When checking used cars by owner, make sure that you run your hand across the surface of the car. When you feel a dent knock on it and make sure it doesn’t feel hollow.
