Back on the road after winters maintenance, opted for the simple solution - lots of glassfiber padding to fill the dent, plastic padding to smoothen surface. Cheap solution, the dent is gone, but not too happy with the result, it would have been better to get a replacement tank....
Another tip for anyone shining up old xt's - if your front exhaust pipes are rusty, brush/sand off the rust as good as possible.
Then apply stuff called "Zink spray", very cheap, it stands heat and keeps the rust away, and leaves a grey/steel look.
