We had a terrible hail storm recently.  Truck and trailer all dinged up.  I understand that the aluminum trailer dings will mostly pop out with warm weather.  Does anyone know, will the same happen for my F250 or does this one really need the repairs?

Trucks and cars will need body shop work. They're steel not aluminum.

If you want to try some thing different you can wait and set you vehicle out in the very hot sun and buy some dry ice (109 degress below zero)and drop a small piece in the indentation should pull most of it out. Good Luck!

I seriously doubt the dry ice will work.When steel is dented it stretches the metal,thinning it just a little.

I used to sell dry ice and have sold quite a bit for this purpose. Have also sold some to people who want to get a well to produce more water too. It sure worth a try won't take 5.00 worth. Also for branding cattle, horses and coon dogs.
