Dented spinner?

[Dale Young]

Dented my spinner yesterday on hangar door...
It's a very small dent, but enough to annoy me. Has anyone else had a dent and been able to knock it out without it being noticable,and if so,.. How?
My spinner is also unpainted.

Some doofus put a pretty good sized dent in mine one time - and never owned up to it. I took the spinner to an auto body shop, who did a pretty good job of removing the dent. Repainted the dent was not noticeable (although you could see evidence of the repair with a close inspection). That spinner also had a crack that was progressing slowly from one of the mounting holes, and I eventually bought a new replacement.

I also use a local auto body guy to do that type of work. One of my mechanics dropped a polished spinner and dented the tip. He was able to make it go away. A painted spinner would be even better.

Getting one's spinner dented in a hangar door raises a whole bunch of images.....

YMMV

What is it that the spinner is connected to again? Depending how you dented it and how hard you my have more than cosmetics to check out and get repaired.
