where are the dents?? if they can be tapped out so they are nearly perfect and then a light bog that should be fine. Dont bog anything more then 5mm deep i say. |

Like Brad says, thick bog will either crack or break off. (doesn't do much for weight either) |

If you have dents 5cm (50mm) deep, I doubt it looks much like a Mini any more  but even professionals need a skim of bog to get a good surface. I would put the limit for a dent at less than 1cm. Anything deeper than that should be banged out. Things like boots and bonnets, I'd just get a newer one.
