carb cleaner works too, as it chills the panel as it evaporates

no because the tins precompressed its absolutley freezing when it comes out, this method works by heating up the panel and cooling it really quickly i dont think compressed air from a compressor is cold enough

you could probably use most things in an aerosol but just becareful because something could react with your paint work. you can get cans of compressed air for 2 pound off google shopping

Jambo i found it was best heating it for a minute rather than 30 secs the cooling had a better effect as the dent pinged out rather than slowly rised
