    i think it's one of those too good to be true things.... IF that really worked, don't ya think everybody would know about it? I suppose anything is possible, but i can't imagine that it's that easy...
     
  3. Oh man I want to try that. Has anyone given it a shot? Does the body material matter? Any ideas if this works with really little dents (like hail damage)?

    Kind of reminds me of the torch and wet rag method. I never could get that to work right. But that was me and my lack of experience.

    wouldn't need trick photography to have a guy pushin from inside. could work, but i'm skeptical to say the least.
     
  7. HAHA, try that on a car with bodyfiller on it. The bondo will be flying everywhere.

    It is possible for it to work on some dents, but I guarantee it will not work on all. If a dent for example has a crease in it the heat and cool method wont work. Also it could be a trick, like someone pushing on the backside out of the shot.

    I've heard of heating the area and covering it with dry ice. Sounds like the same thing.

    I'm not sure about the videos results, but swear by Paintless Dent Removal by the Dent Doctor. Had major hail damage, the Dent Doctor took them all out much cheaper then bondo and paint.

    Hey,

    This isn't a trick i'd try on anything with old,thick or kustom paint.
    This would work for late model thin-steel paneled vehicles. Don't
    look for something like this to work on damage with rolled buckles,
    or swage/bead lines. A suction cup and a finishing s**** wrapped
    in 200mpg. tape would do about the same thing without the trama
    to the paint. PDR. would be a good choice, too.

  14. Looks like it saves alot of time and work, if it works. Rags
