How do I fix a car roof dent?
I’m not sure how, but I came out to my car this morning and noticed a few dents on my car’s roof. There aren’t any marks and the dents look pretty mild, so I figure I should be able to fix this on my own. How can I fix a car roof dent?

It’s strange that these dents seem to have appeared out of nowhere. Luckily, you should be able to
fix dents
on your car roof as long as they aren’t too severe. Here are a few different ways you can try to fix your car roof dents:- Use hot water or a hairdryer. Apply the heat evenly to the dent and then push upward with your hand.
- Use a rubber mallet to gently tap the dent out of place from inside your car.
- Use a toilet plunger (for larger dents). Press the plunger down on top of the dent and pull up with force until the dent is pulled out.
If none of these tips do the trick, take your car to a specialist and pay the bill with the savings you earned by shopping for
car insurance
