Repairing Oil Canning Kayak and Canoe Dents: Episode 93 

Stumbled upon this video, and this was a REALLY helpful and informative video! Short, to the point, and informative, thanks for the tips!

Great video, deserves to be way higher up in the search algorithm

I have a future beach freedom I got off craigslist the other day, and notices that the bottom of the boat was popped out, the kayak has a dihedral hull, and there was points that were bulged out , if I do this will it go to its original shape, when I am reshaping it inwardly rather than outwardly?

I want to know where to get one of those little plastic kayak models like the one in the video! I mini Jackson Big Rig would be fun to have! lol!

What model is that ocean kayak?

Putting a polyethylene kayak put in the sun, to remove oil-canning is not a genius idea. UV will degrade the material, and using this method will shorten the lifespan of the kayak (Hence why it's a good idea to store them indoors.) On a Sit in Kayak. Use a heat gun and simply push out the dent. On a sit ontop, use a heat gun and put a schrader valve onto the boats drain hole. (this may require some engineering on your part.) Use a bicycle pump to pressurize the boat and slowly hat the affected area (don't over heat.) and simply pop the dent out.
