Hey guys I'm going to try this technique later today or on my weekend , I heard about it from my father and google'd it.

People seem to have success with dings and small dents with dry ice.

Of course be VERY careful with this stuff!!

We did this in chemistry back in high school. I have always wanted to try this myself.

I've been wanting to do this for a while, but haven't found a place to get dry ice anywhere.

I forgot to mention it's probably best to apply to the inner side of the dent... for one it won't bother the paint and two some of the directions I've found it's better to apply to the deepest part of the dent.

A lot of bait shops and liquor stores sell it. Sams Club usually has dry ice as well.
