Has anyone ever tried this? I've got a nice 6 inch crease in a rear door that I'd like to fix if I only need to spend $5 for compressed air.

Cartalk maybe? Looks interesting, but i don't think i would use this as a method for removing a dent from my car. Maybe this guy should take an English class.
