WIVCO Design Dent Repair Kit

WIVCO Design Dent Repair Kits: American-Made Precision for Professional Body Work

When a stubborn dent refuses to budge, professional auto body technicians know that the right tool makes all the difference. WIVCO Design has built its reputation on exactly that principle — engineering specialty dent repair tools that tackle the jobs other kits simply can't handle. Based in Platte, South Dakota, WIVCO is a small-batch, American manufacturer whose products are purpose-built for the demands of real-world body shop environments.

At the heart of WIVCO Design's dent repair kit lineup is the flagship Two-Holer™ Master Shop Kit (TH12000). Unlike generic slide-hammer or glue-pull kits, the Two-Holer takes a fundamentally different approach to panel straightening. This master kit includes three different size pulling setups capable of generating 2,000, 6,000, and 13,000 lbs of pulling force, giving technicians the ability to match their pulling power precisely to the severity and location of the dent. That graduated force range is what sets it apart from one-size-fits-all alternatives.

WIVCO's Two-Holer design is particularly well-suited for blind roughing applications — situations where access from the back of a panel is limited or impossible. Its high pulling forces mean it won't back down from the most stubborn dents, and it excels on classic and vintage restoration projects involving heavier-gauge steel panels that modern PDR (paintless dent repair) tools often struggle with. The kit is engineered for effective automotive body and fender repair, weighing in at a manageable 3.2 lbs — durable enough for continuous shop use, light enough to maneuver in tight quarters.

The Two-Holer system is built around a specialized two-hole mechanism that provides secure, precise contact with the panel surface during each pull. The kit includes pull hooks, zee bars, machine eye nuts, bushings, a black oxide steel handle, and shear pins — with spare shear pins included so downtime is never a factor. Individual replacement components (such as small and medium pull hooks, zee bars, and bushings) are also available separately, making the WIVCO system a long-term investment rather than a disposable tool.
