Phil, the ones that have done this use a block of wood 2X4 about 2 feet long lay the end on the tube coming in from the other side of the bike in the area you want to indent and smack the hell out the other end of the board. This will indent the tube but not screw up the paint.
Good luck
See you out there

I'd put some innertube rubber on the end to be sure if it were me, but I'm just anal that way.
