This is a quick, three-minute version of the dent repair using compressed air in a hair dryer. That was a question that was asked, if a hair dryer and compressed air can really repair dents or not, so I tested it out. 

I am heating up the first dent.  I’m going to test three dents and the first dent I heat up as much as the hair dryer will allow it, and then I get the compressed air and I turn it upside down, so that it freezes that area. So, I heat it up, then I freeze it, and that’s what you’re supposed to do with this compressed air, to see if it works. I will keep freezing’ it to make sure that it’s good and cold.

On the first dent, you will see that it did not work. I heated it up with a hair dryer, froze it with compressed air, and the dent’s still there. I’ve also heard that this is supposed to work for hail damage.

I will heat it up with a hair dryer, just as hot as the dryer will get it. Now, a heat gun would get much hotter, but that wasn’t the question. The question was will a hair dryer and compressed air remove a dent. I heated it up and I froze this one and again, when it was all said and done, after it was freezing, I wiped it off, and it’s hard to see in the video but it did not remove the hail dent.

And if it removed any of the three, I thought it probably would remove this one but it didn’t so for me, it didn’t work on hail damage.  I will try the third dent and and people say this process should work on a dent like this.  

This dent is kind of a larger shallow dent.  I heated it up with the hair dryer and then froze it, and I spent a lot more time with the hair dryer.  I then used the compressed air to freeze it and I knew this was going to be my final dent so I hit it a couple times, and you’ll see here where I hit it.  It was about three times to make sure, hoping that it would repair it.
