Galvanised Steel Trim Bent

Post by Amo42 »

Hi. I have a field shelter that got flipped upside down in the last round of storms. We have got it back together now but some of the edge trims have been bent or dented in places. They are galvanised steel apparently. Does anyone have any ideas on how we can straighten them ourselves?
Thanks

How long and thick are the trims?

Off the top of my head they are 5ft long, a U shape (they go over the step into the shelter) and about 5mm thick I’d say.
