This is really cool. Sure it doesn't damage the finish?

Let me know how it works. My darling wife put a small dent on my Crossfire while in the garage, and not with her car's door, but while carrying something. She made a tear on the cover and put a dent on my car.

Some one with a winter beater needs to put a dent in it and try it. I also have a very very small ding that I would like to remove!

Me too. Just got my first dent yesterday! Someone rear ended me at a red light, but no damage but a dent the size of a half dollar.

I guess most of you know about paintless dent repair. The dent is rubbed out from the inside, doesn't harm the paint. Local dent doctor took about 100 hail dents out of my truck last year. Black truck looked perfect.

That looks really cool. I wonder if it would work on small door "ding" dents. I have one in my drivers side door I would like to get rid off. Any one here try this out yet ?

Should work without any damage to the paint. I once used a similar technique, hair dryer and dry ice, to remove a small dent in the hood of my BMW. No damage to paint and the dent was removed.
