The v101 BP allows for "Thermal Repair." If your armor or vehicle is dented, hit it with the Hot hammer. Instead of taking damage, the heat expands the metal back into shape, restoring 5-10 durability per swing. Warning: Do not use on wooden structures.

The v101 "Hot" blueprint only spawns in High-Temperature Zones. Check your map for locations tagged with "Thermal Exhaust," "Magma Cores," or "Reactor Rooms." In most mod packs, the drop rate for the BP Hot is 12% in these zones versus 0.5% in regular ruins.
