I've had faceplates & chassis arrive with dings and bent corners, in steel and aluminum, and unless you have access to a full machine shop and screenprinting facilities, it's very rare that you can improve it, let alone restore it to original condition. Best you can do with typical resources is to conserve and clean it up - which has its own charm, I've come to accept.

I've found from years of fooling around with brushed aluminum plates - less IS more.

The more you try to correct that dent - the more scuffs you'll put in that plate.

Sorry
