with and without dents are polar opposite... so just dent it, then learn... man up, smack her around a bit, learn to roll the metal, not crease it.. and yeah, there's bondo.. bondo is easy to work with.. and i suggest sanding it about 5 mins after it's applied, so it's still a little soft and can cut it down nicely

jb weld will not hold up...get kwik steel or some other 2 compound putty!!! trust me i learned the hard way with gas *** for months
this was my first attempt like a dumbass i cracked and creased it everywhere.....now its got a nice roll and big back lip
just do it small and smooth and u can always go bigger and deeper
put a phonebook on top of the cap and hit that a few times to get the cap to sink evenely. that worked well for me the second time

Alright, I think I have worked up to just denting my minty tank. Its not going to stay all minty anyway right? Now can you tell me the bast way to do it? I want the dent that goes behind the cap, not the whole top of the tank. Should I just stand on the tank and kind of smash it in with my heels then hammer it out with a rubber mallet to smooth everything out? Just walk me through it

Re: Post Up You Pics Of Your Tank
In the Level X videos , Kyle Woods demonstrates how to dent a tank . He used a Dead blow hammer . Snap-on i believe . It's like a rubber mallet with weight in the head .
I seen the video at a friends house , so i am not sure which video it is . I'll call him and ask . (If he is up )
I'll post in a bit
Look in the right corner of the Stuntlife screen and you will see their logo . Click on it . www.levelxvideo.com
