Dents - Toast - 13-06-2013

Just wondering if anyones got any recommendations for the most effective way to pull dents from a bonnet.

The past owners of mine thought it would make a good seating area and left it in a sorry state.

Any ideas?

best to get a better condition bonnet from the breakers, most dent removal places will change you a small fortune

Could always attempt to hammer them out yourself from underneath with some wood and a rubber mallet?

Ignore Matt.
If they are only small dents, get something cylindrical (like a can of paint) and roll it on over the dent on the inside of the bonnet. deals with most small dents providing the panel hasnt creased. This is also assuming its a dent where the bonnet is single skin.

Cheers guys the dents aren't major but visible. I have thought about replacing it but worried about the fade on the paint to make it look out of place. Got some work to do on it tommrow to get it past its mot will see if its possible to hammer out tommrow.
