Play-doh would add just as much structural integrity and be a whole lot cheaper... If the dent doesn't compromise the structure, you might as well leave it alone. If it does compromise the structure, you either need to toss the frame or take it to a frame builder for repair. I own an AC/DC TIG welder and I've built a custom frame: this is one instance where I would not try a DIY repair...
