Well I am thinking of buying this tool and someone esle was renting the tool but stopped because demand was too high. if I get a couple people willing to rent it if I buy it then I will order it ASAP here are the details the guy used for renting it before. I will modify some of the rules. I am located in San Diego California so local pick up will also be available.



Rental details are as follows:

The rental cost is $75 plus shipping to and from me. (In most cases shipping is $20 both directions for ground)
Rental period is for 5 days.
Example; UPS delivers the package on Monday, so Tuesday would start day 1. After your 5th day, the package must be sent back to me along with an email containing the tracking # as proof. If you are late in returning it, a $10/day fee will be charged until it is shipped back to me.
A $500 refundable deposit is placed on your Visa/MC when the tool is rented out. I will refund the $500 less the cost of shipping the tool and the rental fee when it is returned in good order.
If signs of negligence, misuse or damage (whether intentional or not) is done to the equipment, the rentee will pay for repair/replacement of tool(s) damaged. I doubt anything like this should ever happen, but if it does, please let me know.
Ship the package insured back to me so we don't have to argue bullet point #4 and anything else.
Please return the tool in the same box it was sent out with the same packing materials where possible. If UPS damages it in shipment, not to worry, that's why you shipped it insured (as stated in #5) :)
I assume no liability in damages, whether accidental or not, to you or your vehicle(s). The rentee assumes all risk involved in using such device.
Please read directions for use below, it will help you in doing a good job.
I will NOT guarantee you will receive the tool any particular date. Don't even bother asking. It's first come first serve.
There is usually a wait list for the tool. I do no advertising or make mention of it anywhere but surprisingly people come from all over to rent it. Don't expect to get it in 2 weeks. The shortest I've had the list is about 4 people, usually around 8-12 long.

Go for it buddy get the bat and beat on your $30k+ car make sure you have $5 for the touch up paint when you crack it. I will just ask for the deposit and return the change when returned to make it easier.

$75 is probaby too high since the tool only costs $300.

LOL on your idea though... I just made an offer to Pete to rent his for $40 around 2 hours ago. I could also not wait since I am in need very quickly.

ok $50 then

ok $50 then

I'll have to wait and see if Pete will loan me his. He is 1 state over so UPS ground is next day. I am in a bind since my tires are getting ruined and since I own my own business and work all day only my evenings are free and all the shops by me close early.

BTW - If someone rents one I cant see them needing it for more than 1 day. I have also done alot of reading on this subject its also recommended that you heat the metal slightly before you run the tool to allow the sheet metal to flex better and help prevent the risks of cracking the paint.

I WON'T BE DOING IT BUT CURIOUS AS HOW TO HEAT IT? A TORCH IS OUT OF THE QUESTION. I'VE SEEN THESE INDUSTRIAL TYPE HAND HELD HEATERS THAT LOOK LIKE A BIG HAIR DRYER. I DON'T IMAGINE THE WIFE'S HAIR DRYER IS GOING TO GET IT DONE. (SORRY FOR THE CAPS)

Yes, You use the heaters that look like the big hair dryers. These hand held heaters are usually used by packing companies to heat shrink wrap on packages.

You got one in your shop?

Nope. Our policy has always been that we do not re-wrap opened packages and sell them as new so I never needed one.

This guy seems to have a few to rent and for $50 he rents the tool and the heat gun. It might be an option for anyone that needs one pretty quick.
