How to Fix a Dent in a Car's Roof

Getting a dent out of the roof of a car is near impossible to do from the inside. The best way is to use a plunger and a ladder. Removing dents yourself can save you money, and help you brush up on your auto repair skills.

Things You'll Need

  • Ladder
  • Toilet plunger
  • Water
  • Set a ladder up on the side of your car close enough that you can reach across the roof of your car.

  • Dampen the bottom of a plunger and climb up the ladder with the plunger.

  • Place the plunger completely over the dent and slowly push down, allowing all the air to escape from the plunger.

  • Pull the plunger up quickly to release the dents in the roof of your car.
