think it'll work? its a very small dent, smaller than a teaspoon but the paint doesnt flow smooth and is warped at that area!

Never tried any of those techniques myself, but I would go with the dry ice since its really cheap, and has a very low possibility of damaging the paint.

Even if it doesn't work, you can always throw it in some water and act like a mad scientist!

Heat the area with hair dryer before you use Dry ICE

Calla paintless dent repair professional. They should fix it for around $50-$75. I've had it done before and it's almost impossible to see where the dent was.
