Post Title: Can this dent pop out? Posted by:scuba_steve91 at 2:23 PM 6/30/2009 Yea i got a dent on my door. I was wondering what do you guys think of it. Can it be popped out? Or would I be better off calling a Pro dent remover.

Post Title: Re: Can this dent pop out? (ewok_sammich) Posted by:Karateboy88 at 6:39 PM 6/30/2009 Don't work on creases. Tried it with a heat gun and dry ice.

Post Title: Re: (Justin35ll) Posted by:ZOMG.SR20 at 7:12 PM 6/30/2009 i do it after every meet
Post Title: Re: (ZOMG.SR20) Posted by:s13momentum at 4:17 PM 7/2/2009 idk its right on the crease.... but anythings possible....
Post Title: Re: (s13momentum) Posted by:24j0hn at 7:27 PM 7/2/2009 try dry ice and a hammer
Post Title: Re: (24j0hn) Posted by:ViciousCesar! at 7:59 PM 7/2/2009 can you get a deflated basketball in there with the door panel off?
Post Title: Re: (ViciousCesar!) Posted by:hbpignosePA at 8:10 PM 7/2/2009 dude i just noticed the cressida

Post Title: Re: (hbpignosePA) Posted by:Didderson at 9:06 PM 7/2/2009
For the guys who try the heat gun/compressed air CAN, turn the can upside down 2 get the dry ice.
Ditto what HB said^ clean cress!

take the door panel off and push on it..if its going to pup at all, it'll do it like that..then wrap a hand towel around a 1ft socket..put that side against the dent and tap on the other side gently, did this to my 1/4 panel behind the door in almost the same shape with that crease..took some time bust i worked it out.
worse case scenario....its still there but not as bad?

Try a plunger.

Where do you all come up with these crazy ideas?
Post Title: Re: (maj Andres) Posted by:moulton712 at 4:27 PM 7/3/2009 this does work. done it.
heat and bottled air/dry ice does work. we use a similar method with window tint. (heat and water on plastic)

dude thats a classic, take a deflated basketball blatter, put it behind the dent, and slowly air it up. the pressure will pop the dent out. i know hot rod guys who have been doing that since before 240's even came out.

also when you go to flare/pull fenders, the little dent that it made right above the wheel arches..i know guys who do that and then just leave them inflated..its pretty ridiculous when sam bought his and he took them out thinking they were for s***z and giggles from the last guy..then cried when he came out the next day and saw those dents

Oh yeah...I remember my Granddad using a deflated basketball to pop a dent out of his door on his station wagon one time...I was about 7 at the time...so that was about...31 years ago. Since I've seen other guys that have done it...it works pretty good.
