Hopefully this isn't a re-post...........

So, I was cruising another website and came across an interesting way to remove dents.

I have a dent in each side of my gas tank, and I think I'm going to try this technique, and see how it goes. You can see the dent in one side here in this pic. There is nearly an identical dent on the other side of the tank in the same spot.






I'll post up some pics after the "experiment" lol....

Gidday,

Good find M Hankel!!!!

Haven't seen those tricks before, any idea if they will work on plastic bumpers as well?


Cheers

That was pretty neat. Good find if it works. Let us know how you get on....

Know wonder I love steel, you can do anything with it, shrink,expand etc and the vid demonstrates that!

top find mate!!!!

I wouldn't clamp ya knees so tightly onto the tank next time! lol

LOL,,, ya the dents were from the previous owner.

I can't wait to try this out this weekend.

Well, tried the CO2 method and it pulled it out slightly. Going to try the dryice on Sunday if I can find some.....

Safeway should have it.

I have got to go and try that myself! Hi everybody! I'm back from traveling!

You were gone ?

Welcome back Barney ! And good tails from the road ?

Ive tried this using a hair dryer and a can of plumers freeze spray. It didnt work as hoped

But to be honest I dont think the hair dryer gave off enough heat for the metal to react. I know that scientificly this will work, as shown in the video.
Ill have another go with a better heat source

Just make sure you gradually heat the area! Too much heat, too fast will result in a new paint job
