Vehicle: 2002 Dodge Caravan SE

On the passenger side sliding door, lower part, we have a dent. The entire side is rough needing some buffing but first i need to correct that dent. Would this be achieved by removing the inside panel and using a block of wood + hammer to press the metal frame from the inside out?

I did purchase a suction device to place on the outside frame to pull out the dent but it didnt work out -- it had trouble getting a good grip. Useless.

Thanks.

Thanks vpnavy.

The dry ice / dryer approach looks interesting. Even if it fails it would still be fun to try.
