You can try Seamfill if you color match it correctly it might just blend in.

If you are looking for an invisible repair, I think you are probably out of luck. But, it depends on where the "ding" is.

why not call a surface repair company? if you don't know what to use then you shouldn't be the one making the repair. seamfill really isn't made for this type of repair.
