It's worth a try. When you have bare metal you are trying to shrink you heat
a rather large area, and the area you want to shrink hotter and then cool
the area to be shrunk with a wet cold rag.

I wrap the dry ice in a thin rag and put it on the back side of the panel if
I could get to it.

If you are successful though, it might only be a temporary fix. The area has
been stretched and the slightest touch would probably cause it to "oil can"
again.
