i have this huge dent on my left front fender(walmart parking lot)and i was wondering if dry ice would remove it?also how do you use dry ice.any other techniques are welcomed.thanks

 

dry ice works for small dings, it shrinks the metal just a little. The cheapest and first thing i'd always try is a good ole toilet plunger. My friend was looking at a dent i had on my fender one day adn he's like "let's take that out" and i go "i dont have the tools or money to buy repair stuff" and he goes "watch" so he went inside and then came back out with a plunger, i looked at him like "wtf" then he pressed it against the dent and pulled and it popped right out. You cant tell i ever had one. took like 5 seconds. So thats the first thing i would try since it doesn't cost anything (Unless you dont have a plunger) and if it doesnt work, you had nothing to lose in the first place

 

i'd like to know more about this dry ice thing....never heard of it.

it shrinks the metal a little...and that's supposed to pop a dent?

thanks.
