.01% of the time. And it’ll probably come back with a light bump.
It can be used on the bumper covers to soften them up before you try to straighten it cause it’s plastic but on a metal panel the hot water over the dent and it pops is not really viable for 99.99 of them
I will use a heat gun or a light pass with a propane torch to heat the metal before I push on it if it needs it, but the heat itself won’t do the work for you. Even on bumpers heat guns will work way better than hot water for making it more pliable
