iPad Corner Dents

[SIRCOOKS]

Good Morning,

I have a huge problem when customers come to me for their ipad to be repaired with dents on the corner (see pics attached). is there a pry tool, a grinder of some sort that can help or will sand paper work. The has to be a way to shape the frame back to its original form in order to properly set the new screen in instead of cutting and adjusting the bezel and using super glue. Some please advise.

Seems to me the only way to repair it would be to open up the ipad and strip it down to the shell. After that work from the inside of the dent with a small wooden dowel, or series of smaller to slightly larger dowels and gently tap it back out and into shape.
Not sure if there is any better method. It's kind of like car body repair.
Other than that, sell them a case to put it in and tell them not to worry about it.

Great idea...Just a question, can you post a picture or send me a webpage link (maybe eBay) of the item so I can purchase the item? PLEASE!!!

I am speaking theoretically.
But, perhaps a web search for "repairing ipad corners" may turn up some results for you.
Good Luck!
