I ran across this while surfing around and thought I would post it. The video shows how to remove a dent using a hair drier and compressed air.

Same principle as dry ice or pouring ice water on hale damage. I have had luck with pouring the ice water on the dents every evening in hot weather and eventually they will disappear.

I just tried this on a couple of small dents, didn't work. maybe they were to small. Had one on top side of cavieler just above drivers door thought for sure that one would come out. It was kind of hard to spray on the roof of the car though. Was worth a try.

Warm it up really hot. A heat gun works best. then put a piece of dry ice on it. Walmart here carries dry ice.
Dry ice is CO2 in solid form. Colder than liquid CO2.
That will shrink the dent out if it is possible.

Since the statue of limitations has run out.......This is exactly why you couldn't find a charged fire extinguisher in all of South Vietnam :lol: How else could we reward the troops in the boonies with a cold beer? :wink:
