Abstract
A paintless dent repair kit includes a housing with a handle extending therefrom and a toothed wheel rotatably retained in the housing. The toothed wheel has a plurality of teeth extending outwards therefrom and is configured to receive, replace, and removably retain a connector, which is attached on the other end to a quick-connect coupling. The quick-connect coupling is, in turn, configured to releasably retain a socket of a commercially-available set of dent removal tips, for example, a KIPP socket or an ULTRA socket. The housing features a first button connected to a teethed lever slidably positioned to be either engaged or disengaged with the plurality of teeth of the toothed wheel depending on the position of the first button. Unless the first button is depressed, the dent removal tool is configured to securely and fixedly retain the dent removal tip to facilitate direct transmission of force and torque from the handle to the coupling and then to the dent removal tip during dent removal operations.
