Found this on a site I go to, and wondered if anyone here has tried it out?

Removing car dents on a budget - Lifehacker

No, but I have an old shed runabout with loads of dents........I'll try it and let you know (some are huuuuuuuge dents!)

Ryo

Cheers - I dont have any dents at the mo (fingers crossed it stays that way too) however after seeing all the car park ding rants on here I thought it may be of use.

Cool cool.

I can imagine it working on bigger dents, but small parking dings may be a different matter. I hope I am wrong though and look forward to the results of any 'tests' that are done on old sheds.

I've a self inflicted golf ball dent in the front wing I bought a dent puller but it's not made any difference. The dent puller itself is pretty good, but the dent is on the wing so I can't get it stuck on as necessary. i might try the hair dryer one though! Air duster?

An aerosol can of air for cleaning dust from electrical componants - turn the can upside down and the output from the nozzle freezes like dry ice!

Ahh, cheers.
Would be interesting to know if this works for anyone.

I believe dry ice is made from co2, dose any one know if this is true? If it is I have several welding tanks of co2 I will make some and let you know if it works because some nice little brat has thought it would be very funny to shoot my car with what I can only explain as a bb gun I think

Thats what I thought. Granted its an American site, but I wondered if anyone had tried it or heard of it here.

Not wanting anyone to try it on their pride and joy though - I wouldnt want to guniea pig my scoob!

Right, just tried it on the runabout (read shed).....bugger all difference, though tbh the dents were more like creases where some pr1ck had slammed their door into mine.

It might work on very minor dents which haven't creased the metal (perhaps even very 'fresh' dents....doesn't metal have memory or something???) but I think probably not.

My advice is not to waste your £6 (yes £6 for a can of air ).
