I did a web search on paint less dent removal and I found this video that uses a hair dryer and an air duster: http://www.metacafe.com/watch/501379/remov...with_airduster/
Has any one tried this method? I also came across a similar video that uses dry ice instead of the duster can? I went out to give it a try only to find that my duster was empty and then I thought I should consult with the World to see if I am getting in over my head! |

Here is a useful site. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
http://www.how-to-paintless-dent-repair.co...nt-removal.html While my dad was working at the dealership about a decade or so ago, I was able to play with the technique with the spoons. The basic idea was to massage the metal around the dent with the spoon, and slowly work your way to the center. That site has better info than my little paragraph, and I'm sure some pros with more modern experience will chime in. |
