Fix Dent in Oven Door?
Comments (7)BE SURE!!!!! To inspect the oven cavity for cracks, flaking etc, especially in the area that rhome had problems. We don't how that dent occured, (Hopefully not from dropping it)! Also check the alignment of the door, and if all possilbe turn on the oven and start a self clean, just long enough to see if the door will lock, but more importantly, will it unlock? (Note Breezygirl's comment in your post in Kitchen Forums). Also there was a modification to the doors on the "L series" Wolf's for modifications to the lock assembly,("A pin that corrodes") as I recall, and this generated an error code. I would have to go back and read your post in the appliance forum, but are you getting a warranty on it, and hopefully from Wolf? I'm not trying to discourage you from buying it, sounds like a good deal, I'm just trying to save you from some "Aw Sh**s" on down the line! Best of Luck!

Comments (13)There's a product called "bondo" that has been used for years to repair all sorts of materials including metals. I'm not sure it works on Aluminum but it's worth a try. It can be applied heavy, then sanded down and painted. We use it occasionally to repair window sills and trim for our customers here in NJ.

Comments (10)You need access to the rear of the dent. Possibly that means drilling a hole, then pushing out the dent. A dentless guy could do this with a hole. Then fill the hole with low expand foam or something depending on what you find when you drill the hole. Place a bottle of salad dressing in front of the repaired interior spot. Certain death. Small chance of success. What are we waiting for?...See MoreHow do I fix these walk holes?
Comments (2)If it's only dented you can use hot mud it will be faster and easier to make it smooth vs. metal patches....See Morebus_driver
