Maybe you have a dent in your car bumper and you are wondering how to rectify the damage, it is very simple.
At times, this may leave you bothered when you consider paying a costly mechanic to repair an unsightly dent in your car, then think again.
A genius hack allows you to mend your battered bumper with nothing more than boiling water.
These video shows the owners of a white car (above) and a blue car (below) dousing a dent with scalding water from a saucepan.
He reaches under the bonnet and gently pops out the dent while it is still warm, you would hope while wearing gloves.
Then for the second car, the owner carefully detached the rear bumper from the vehicles to have access to the dented area, and pops if out with a hand-held hammer.
This is to be done carefully to avoid damaging the bumper.
It should be said at this point the trick only works if your bumper is made out of plastic.
And other people insist on pouring cold water on the material after it has returned to the original shape to cool it down.
If you are still left with scratches after your prang, there are lots of other useful hacks out there for covering them over.
Some people recommend using nail paint that is the same shade as your vehicle, or even a permanent marker pen.
These are all of course just cheap touch-ups and will wear off after a short time.
