They are so minor, if I could get my hand in there. I'm looking
for a possible easy fix to smooth these out a bit. The bottom is beautiful, doesn't even need paint.

Most are dented or oil canned (thin metal).

I have thot about pressurizing them with air thinking that may sufficiently pop out the waves. Perhaps additionally persuading them with externally-applied heat or a roller. The fabricators may want to weld rods onto them pull them out, but that is delicate work on thin metal.
