    Angry Paintless dent repair

    Do any of you body shop guys have an opinion on if heating and dry ice/carbon dioxide will help this:


    I worked on it for a little while today and got the scuffs and a lot of the dent out but it is still pretty bad. I am hoping dry ice will work. Any ideas/suggestions?

    Thanks

    Since its all on curved surfaces and so large I would say no. A body shop is your hero for that large of a dent.

    damn. I got a lot of it out just with some hammering and prying against the frame. It's just bad enough now to really bother me.
