Remove a car dent easy

dent

The process is simple and involves heating the dent with a hairdryer for 30 seconds to a minute. Next, quickly spray the area with compressed air for about 10 seconds. The last step is to take a step back and listen for the dent to pop itself out. Surely the explanation involves the expansion and contraction of metal due to the hairdryer's heat and the -110 degree Farenheit temperature of the liquid CO2 from the compressed air. The video's producer is quick to point out that his process will not harm your vehicle's paint, though we imagine whatever dented your car in the first place already did.

umm... aren't most "canned air" bottles like that difluoroethane, or similar HFCs? I've never seen a can like that of CO2...

while I don't doubt the heat/cold change can get the dent out, I would worry about the paint.

Cool, but the filming is complete sheit, why cant we see a proper view of the car to see where the dent was, and a before/after shot? very annoying. Still, I learned something, so upvote.

Oh, and it also looks like the kind of bump you could straighten by pushing from the inside by using your hand, its still good for places hard-to-reach ofcourse, but I doubt it will work on those pesky small bumps. Maybe with much more heat?
