dent removal

Anyone ever tried the hair dryer/compressed air or dry ice method for dent removal?

Did it work?

I tried the hair dryer/compressed air method and it did not work for me.

I researched it a lot a year or two ago, and I don't believe it works except on very flat steel panels, like what you would find on the side of a delivery van.

what body panel is it on??

A ding hammer but it take a lot of skill. Bondo, fiberglass or what the epoxy stuff the majority of these cars are made of. But then you need paint.


Have you gone to a paintless dent removal spot??

PDR is relatively cheap and it'll look a lot better than a amateur job.
