http://CollisionBlast.com/AutoBodyGuides - Fix Dents using compressed air and a hair dryer. Does that really work? That is what we are going to test in this auto show.

I used many different ways to repair door dents and door dings, but never the compressed air and hair dryer trick. If this works, the dent removal cost will be minimal. A can of air...that is it. Join Donnie Smith in the first episode of Does It Really Work Auto Show to learn if it works for me, or not.

  • AT 5:38 IT LOOKED LIKE A HAND APPEARED IN THE CENTER..

    like it was saying " stop!! ur looking like a dumbass!!"

  • @ssdtrain1 The metal cooling down does not fly because I tried this on two other dents in the video and sprayed the dent immediately after heating.....still did not work!

  • Hey, your the only person who is actually honest, though can I ask you, what video editor do you use?

  • @samueltheboss1 Thanks for watching. I use Macs iMovie to edit this video. However, I had the intro video part of the video made for by someone else.

  • Absolutely this works as long as the metal is not creased. I have repaired all sorts of damage using this method. First heat from the outside in not from the center out. the hottest spot you want it the rim of the dent, not the dent itself. Spray the rim of the dent not the dent. The cold contracts, pulls the creases out, it doesn't pop the dent as you were expecting. You sprayed the dent but it's the surrounding metal that pulls the dent. I start heating about a foot from the dent and work in.

  • @DrDance2323 Thanks for the detailed instructions. When I get a chance, I will give it another try. Thanks for watching.

  • If it helps the center of the dent isnt where you should concentrate. Its the surrounding area of the metal. (:

  • it didnt work cause you took too long trying to figure out how

    to use a can of air!!! and the metal cooled..

  • Perhaps if you had not have let it cool down so long before you applied the air... works here when red hot... not luke warm..

  • theres a guy in the car pushing the dent out
