Re: Dent Removal Technique
you can just buy those packs of ice, let it melt in the bag and then stick it in the freezer so it all freezes all together into one block.gannet wrote:erm... useful to know

fyi... i've never tried the above method in the video myself.

Re: Dent Removal Technique
That's quite brilliant!
Wish I'd see that sooner... collecting the car from Chips Away later!
Peddy, possibly a stupid question...
Thanks

Do you keep the ice in the bag using the above method? Don't see why the car being wet would make any difference, but I never know.peddy wrote: you can just buy those packs of ice, let it melt in the bag and then stick it in the freezer so it all freezes all together into one block.

Re: Dent Removal Technique
No, you'd remove it once a big block. i just suggested getting bags of ice so you can easily make it into one block and not have to find somewhere which sold blocks of ice.PawnSacrifice wrote:That's quite brilliant!

Re: Dent Removal Technique
This is not just ice as in frozen water though. That would melt and might not be cold enough.
Liquid Nitrogen is described as dry ice.

Re: Dent Removal Technique
Great video!
you could use an empty ice cream tub to make a big block, simple, and you end up getting to polish off the ice cream!
nice

Re: Dent Removal Technique
You need very cold 'dry' ice to do this though.
Your car doesn't remove it's own dints in winter even at -5degC afterall
You need it to be very cold and localised...
Not sure where you would get this in the UK, but my wife uses it at her labs... would be cool to try
