You can most likely get out alot of the small dings using a leather bag filled with #9 lead shot as your backup and the rounded end of a wooden broomstick used as a punch to GENTLY work out the dings. This works pretty good for me with soft or annealed aluminum. We take bird strikes on the nosecones of our research pods every now an then, and this is how I work those dents out.
