Thread: Shrink this panel

Tweet

I use my stud gun, has a shrinking tip attachment. Takes a bit of practice to not get too much heat, then a bunch of pingin' and dingin' along the edges.... On some minor oil canning, I've also been able to firm it up with a shrinking hammer and dollie....and sometimes a body hammer and a shrinking dollie.... Hard to describe the correct procedure in words....best if you had someone local to show you....

If you have an acetylne torch with your smallest heat a small dot in the middle of the desired area(make sure nothing behind will burn) it will stick out like a pimple GENTLY hammer it down then cool it with water this will shrink the area, be careful this can easily be overdone. Good luck
