Extreme heat from the hair dryer expands the sheet metal and the cold from liquid carbon dioxide (-109 degrees, dry ice) condenses the metal.

It works. The professional body repair shops do this also. It is Sunday. No need to ask more questions. Just go do it.

I'm guessing you can do the same thing with a flat piece of dry ice although the spray would be quicker.

That was cool. You should add it DOESN'T cause any damage to the paint, but that was a really helpful tip.

if yuou have a big dent use the basketball trick 1. deflate a basketball 2. put it in between the dent and the frame of the car 3. inflate the ball until the dent pops out I just did this today and it works really good then I used the compressed air to get the smaller divets that were left

It would only work on metal. metal expands and contracts. plastic just melts and cracks.

scam.... it doesn't work don't waste your time you might damage your car. fixing a dent with hair blower and co2 simply doesn't work, it will mass up your point. and this video is not clear enough to show there an actual dent on an actual car.... simply don't waste your time if you want your dent fixed get to a body shop or buy a dent popper off ebay for $10.
