Remove Car Dents With Dry Ice??

knight · 05-03-2007, 07:31 PM

So as I was surfing the web, I found this interesting video, remove car dents with dry ice...

http://www.metacafe.com/watch/494805..._with_dry_ice/

I was just wondering if any one has really tried this or heard of it before? and does it really work?

NPDAN · 05-03-2007, 07:34 PM

I dont buy it...

knight · 05-03-2007, 07:37 PM

maybe you should try it first and let us all know

NPDAN · 05-03-2007, 07:37 PM

I dont have a dent to try it on

knight · 05-03-2007, 07:46 PM

then go find a neighbor who does

quiXotic · 05-03-2007, 09:58 PM

Throw a baseball at it and then show us

picus · 05-03-2007, 10:00 PM

I've seen this tried, it doesn't work.

ironic · 05-03-2007, 10:07 PM

lol iono if it'd do that to my car

zzinco79 · 05-03-2007, 10:40 PM

It works if you have small size (I will say tennis ball size) punched in dent.

Put some painters masking tape on top of the dent and put dry ice on it.

It looks little bit rugged but not so noticeable. Try it.

Fartpimpson · 05-03-2007, 11:32 PM

I don't think it will work....

SES_D · 05-03-2007, 11:37 PM

I think it'll work if you have a very, very small dent. Nothing bigger than the size of a pingpong ball...

I can possibly try this out on my friends civic.
I threw a water bottle at his car while going 80 on a road with noone on it. =X...it made a small dent on his door =D

I ONLY DID IT BECAUSE HE DID IT FIRST!

knight · 05-03-2007, 11:53 PM

i have a dent a size of maybe a penny? j/w if this would actually work...would save me a couple hundreds

It does look to be a very small sized ding. I'll bet I can find one on my old Silverado...I'll do it, just gotta find some dry ice, won't be a problem...I'll post photos sometime next week if I do it.

awesome, please do

that way we can really see if this myth really does exist...

just watch, if this does work, you're gonna see a lot of bmw's at the grocery store buying dry ice

Nice touch with the airduster! I've had luck with the suction cup and puller as well but this one might be better!

i heard that suction cup and puller wasn't as effective as advertised?

very nice find with the airduster...that one seems more reasonable to do..

the suction cup works at times... my friend used it on her brand new infinitie... she hit into this guys MUSTANG... haha it was funny

she was parking.. yeahh.. anyway
