Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • paintless dent/ dint removal?

    anyone got any advice on how to remove carpark dents/ minor body damage without having to remove, beat, paint etc??

    i heard some old wives tales a few years ago about dry ice/ hot irons.. (seemed a bit silly too me-self, but what the heck...asking the question here)

    anyone tried this or any other experiences?

    It's a matter of location

    Yeah.. I got one of these blokes to look at the damage to my roof http://www.vwwatercooled.org.au/vwfo...opic.php?t=736
    He reckoned you have to be able to get inside the panel and push it out. (I thought they sucked it out!) Anyway he said he couldn't do it. The idea of expansion/contraction of the metal is good one. The traditional way of removing a dent is to heat the area up with an oxy torch and then cool it quickly. Sounds the same. Now you've got me thinking!
