Default RP38a Metal front grill

Have a RP38a but the grill is very slightly dented
is there any way to get it straightened to the eye
only way i can think of is two metal rollers and keep passing it through but never done it with one.
Any ideas how to sort it would be appreciated if it is indeed possible
regards
Merv

Had some success with a similar Roberts grille using a wallpaper edge roller against a hardwood chopping board.
