No, dont use the baseball bat.

There is a cleaner solution. Search under my username, a few months ago I provided someone with an alternate method, less potential for disaster than the Baseball bat.

Follow my suggestion, take your time, and you wont have to worry about cracking the paint or buckling the fender...

Its easy...

Yes, just be patient, take your time. Please be careful not to overheat things, it might take you a few attempts to "dial in the process..."
