Your insurance company will probably send you to a dent place first. I work for Nationwide and the dent guys can take out hundreds of dents and you can't tell when they get done. So unless the paint is bad, it does not need to go to a body shop.

There is another hail thread down the page. The dent removal guys can work magic.

One thing though, Dave, I don't think it works on the aluminum hood. That may have to be replaced.

You'll probably be better off replacing the whole top as opposed to trying to repair it. A repaired top will not look right, and the repair would likely cost just as much as getting a new one. Plus, you'll get a new plastic rear window, and have the option of upgrading to a glass window.
