Bahco body repair dollies for panel beating

Bahco bodywork dollies: comma, heel, toe, wedge and rubber

Bahco bodywork dollies are held against the back of a panel while you strike the front with a panel beating hammer. Panel beaters and body repairers use them to reshape dents in bodywork back to the original curve.

Each shape suits a different part of the body. A comma dolly follows crowned and hollow transitions, a heel dolly has a flat and a curved face for edges and folds, and a toe dolly works on flat panels and narrow spots. A wedge dolly gets behind tight edges where there is little room, and a diabolo dolly has two curves for hollow profiles. The American dolly is an all-round shape for general dent work.

The rubber heel dolly deserves a separate mention. Rubber leaves no marks on painted or soft panels, so you can dress a panel without damaging the paint.

For a complete repair kit, combine dollies with a hydraulic body repair set from Bahco automotive tool sets and jump leads. These dollies are part of the wider Bahco automotive tools range for vehicle maintenance and repair.
