The airlines use dry ice and heat combo to shrink hail dents out of aircraft fuselages. Of course they're aluminum, a softer metal, but I'm wondering if it might work on steel. Heat is applied to the general area and then dry ice is placed on the spot of the dent, shrinking the dimple.

Some people try to turn back their "odometers." Not me. I want people to know 'why' I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved.
