Well i just tried out the compressed air/hairdryer method and it worked pretty well. Did it on a wide dent, and although it didn't remove it completely it definitely made a significant improvement where you have to have the light hitting it at the right angle to notice it now.

....known as the "Dent Wizard" in these parts.....used them several times on my winter beater ES300......worked great.......I have a nice ding on the hood of my EVO.....still debating if I should let the Dent Wizard have at my aluminum hood........Sick Speed

Unfortunaltly I did it at 9:40 at night, so it was too dark to do photos, but I had a flashlight and could see the before and after of light bending around the dent. I can imagine that this method would not work on sharp small dents, as it seems to pull large caved in dents out, based on the idea of the expansion and contraction of the hot then cold. So yeah, small dents I don't think your going to get those kind of results

more like I read this thread at 9:20 at night and said "hey, I have a dent, and a blowdryer AND compressed air, I'm gonna give it a shot." Because I'm impatient.
