Got Dents?? Thinking about trying this...

I heard about that before, never had tried it. Let us know how it works out for you....
 
I wouldn't get a heat gun close to auto paint. It can blister paint before you know what's happened.
 
wow thanx for the vid.. i have a few dings and im willing to try this out. Ill probably try this out on Sunday and let u know how it goes.
 
I heard mixed results ... what I have seen work first hand is the Dent Doctor. Pulled a small dent from wifes door in 3-4 minutes.
 
I've done this with dry ice a hair dryer and compressed air in a can and a hair dryer.
It works!!
 
Good to hear everyones results. So I am going to have to try this when I get a chance.

I've also used the dent doctor on three or four dents my wife had on her car (hate thatparking lot at her work) and was very pleased with the results.
 
Thanks for the thread id-type-s!
AL417 thanks for the PM and confidence. I will let you know how it goes!
 
As long as there isn't a crease in the body work it may work...

Where did you get Dent Doctor? When I googled it, the website was a service where you go to them to get the service.

You used both dry ice and compressed air? I figured you would use one or the other to cool the paint surface after you have heated it with a hair dryer.

Could you describe the process?

I've used both methods;hair dryer and dry ice and hair dryer and compressed air. Sorry if I was unclear, it is an either or on the dry ice and compressed air. Not both.

If you search on youtube.com for "dents dry ice" there are a lot of videos out there that show how to do this.

I do have the order right correct? First heat it with the hair dryer then cool it with compressed air or dry ice.

That's it. Give it a try. Heat it up and then use either dry ice or compressed air in a can. If you used compressed air hold the can upsidedown when you spray the dent.
 
I can't remember who my cousin works for, Dent King, Dent Doctor, Dent Wizard...something like that lol. I've seen him fix dents w/o damaging paint that I never would have thought would have been fixable to where wasn't even noticeable. Pretty crazy, yeh you have the tools, but some of these guys had crazy skills with dents. They use him a lot at places like Barret Jackson and other fancy auctions.
