Angry Hail Damage

My Baby got hailed on not once but 3 times on a recent camping trip to Grayson Highlands State Park , Virginia......

I have little dents all over the hood and roof....... I am calling insurance people tomorrow....

any comments on what I should expect from Insurance company ??

Any comments as to how to have this problem fixed???

Hail ranged from 1/4" (no damage) to nearly 3/4" and that did the dents...

thanks......

Mike

Like scooksey said, he used the paintless dent removal and he swears by it. I've heard several similar cases where the paintlelss removal worked like a charm (to the point that you COULD NOT tell that a dent ever existed).

I certainly feel for you because I was in a SOFTBALL SIZED hail storm a few years ago in Bowling Green Kentucky (home of Western Kentucky University). The bulk of that storm hit on the 'main drag' where all the car lots are located. It would make you cry driving down through there seeing the windshields beat into the front seats of vehicles. It's truely a miracle that no one was seriously hurt and/or killed.

I sustained damage from 'a little larger than marble' (closer to golfball) sized hail from where the storm was just getting itself up to 'fastpitch' speed. Totaled mine out but, broke no glass.

Good Luck with this. I know it'll be a pain in the butt but, be patient... it'll work out.

Note to self: Avoid Grayson Highlands State Park , Virginia like the plauge.
