I heard you could use a blow torch to heat up the tank which will make it easier to dent it with a rubber mallet. is this true? Is there any other ways of doing this i dented mine pretty good i just gota sand the whole tank down and powercoat it.

 

Open the tank and drop a lit match inside. The heat makes the tank dent iteself.

 

this is great, i can't believe i'm gonna be the first to respond to this. so here goes- do not use a blow torch on your gas tank unless you want to blow yourself up or catch yourself on fire. think man, think.

 

get it on vid to:YEAH

 

This guy has no clue what he is talking about.

 

no you cant. you might be thinking of useing a heat gun on plastic tank covers. try using the search before asking questions like this to avoid being raked over the coals

 

i'll talk slow, so you understand. uussee tthhee sseeaarrcchh ttoo ffiinndd iinnffoo oonn ttaannkk ddeennttiinngg. rreemmeemmbbeerr, SSEEAARRCCHH.

 

lol, yaa...

u don't need to heat it up, juss take ur time.

 

lol na dude im not stupid. I took my tank off and drained all the gas

 

denting your tank is ssooooo last year

 

i was just thinking if u heated it up alil you would get a smoother dent thats all. i already dented mine and it came out really nice.
I dented it a lil more than this...gonna sand it all down and paint the whole tank black and airbrush flames and some kickass skulls onto it.

 

Put 2 ounces of gas back in. Light it on fire (i know it sounds crazy) and then close the cap after it is on fire. It will cause the vaccum that forms all the custom dents the pros have.

 

do you see all the lil bumps and **** in front of the gas cap...theres like a spinal cord or something there and you can't realy dent it in. so thats why i was asking if i heated it up it will dent easier you know what im saying?

 

that sounds like a PERFECT idea ill get right on that!

 

You couldn't be that ******* stupid. Blow torch to a container full of gasoline. The person that told you that is still ******* laughing. You are a ******* idiot.

 

Its official, you ARE that dumb. Least now I know.

 

 

DUDE! ur ******* RETARDED! u don't need a torch on a metal tank my friend dented his tank on his 05 636 and it came our perfect.... just dent the bitch and if it comes out ugly use some bondo and paint u DUMBASS! seriously!

 

anytime i ever dented a tank it was a catastrophy. and i took my time too. the tank was cold as **** so i cant imagine why a hair dryer or a heat gun wouldnt make the metal more bendable and prevent it from splitting.

 

dont use a blow torch on 87 octane gasoline....it will ignite..
....you should be aight with with 93 octane or so.:YEAH

lemme know how it goes.















or i'll read about it in the news
