I spent so much time trying to use the hot water trick, plunger trick, trying to force the dent and it wouldn't budge, I thought maybe I wasn't strong enough, a guy even tried to do it for me and it wouldn't budge. I didn't give up, 5mins later with a hair dryer I pushed the dent out so easily, I'm absolutely shocked. Thank you.

Wondering, why didn't you use hot water then push it out. Wouldn't that be faster? Or will the hot water damage that unpainted rubber or whatever it is?
Well that was pretty ninja! Sweet, thanks OZ, never been a body guy, but this will help on my car, since I actually have a spot I'm going to try this on!
Hair dryers temp range from 80 f to 140 f depending on the model. The harbor freight Heat gun that I own heats up 700 f on low setting and 1000 f on high setting. Assuming that the type of plastic you are working with is pp plastic, pp plastic has a heat resistance of about 180, taking it up beyond 180 f compromises performance values, if using a hair dryer there is nothing to worry about, buuuut, depending on the type of dent and location of dent, the hair dryer might not heat the plastic hot enough to be able to take the dent out. If I were you I would go to harbor freight and get a heat gun, set it to low and just like the gentleman did with not letting the heat stay in one place, heat the area up. But remember that it crucial not to let the heat stand in one place, I would definitely seek some help with operating the heat gun. Here's the link. Solid heat gun with a good price tag. I bought nubs for 7.99, occasionally they go on sale.. www.harborfreight.com/1500-watt-11-amp-dual-temperature-heat-gun-56434.html
I've had a dent in corner of the front bumper on my Jeep Grand Cherokee that's been bugging me for a year, guess what I'm doing tomorrow with my trusty Harbor Freight heat gun?

Because I used this one and it works good. Doesn’t leave a mess
@@OzMechanics OK makes sense! I see what you mean. Thanks!
Omg! It looks so easy.

Just got a heat gun to get corner dent from rear Chevy Cruze bumper (plastic)
hear dryer vs heat guy which one is better? I used a hair dryer on my vehicle dent but seems like front bumper plastic is way too strong. Please help.
Just depends on how strong the hair dryer is. I’ve use my wife’s once without a problem

I have thar, its back bumper got a dent is dryer help to remove dent please reply😢
Good job keep up the good work !!! 😊😆
You have to be careful using a hair dryer, as the bumper can get so hot that the paint blisters.
That’s why I’m moving the dryer around not stuck on just one area. Thanks for watching

Yay, I could do this!
Jessica Poindexter's give it a try. Really easy
Cool video
You missed a couple
That's a heat gun.
Is to get people to watch. Pretty much the same thing. Thanks for spotting the obvious
Hairdryer won’t get hot enough
Yes it does, just did it yesterday in like 5 to 10 ish minutes while I did something else, came back popped it out and done
That's NOT a hair dryer. Seems dishonest and fraudulent to mislabel your videos. Won't be watching any more of your videos.
