So next time I wrap the car round a tree I don't need t-cut? Just some heat and some co2 air  :shocked:

Amazing stuff, would love to give it a go if I ever get a dent like that.

it'll work on larger dents like they've done, I've seen it done before ( in videos ) - nothing to lose but a 5 mins and a can of compressed air  :smiley:

It does work, its the quick change in temp that cause the metal to pop out. You can go from cold to hot or visa versa. Doesn't have to be compressed air, you can also use dry ice, freezer spray etc.
