I don’t even remember it being dented in that spot. The physics of it are a mystery to me.

I did use a leaf blower at the end but the salt required some initial mechanical persuasion.

I would have preferred to pressure wash and be done with it but I have no drain in my garage and I recently broke my floor squeegee (having bad luck with handles lately it seems lol).

    Yup. Sometimes it just needs that overkill. The garage I used the leaf blower in belonged to a relative and hadn't been cleaned in well over a decade, and after I got done with all the heavy work of moving all the shelves and boxes around I didn't have much enthusiasm for the good sweep it really needed. Plus the leaf blower got all the cobwebs I couldn't reach under and around the shelves, win/win. There was a water softener but no hardened salt anywhere, fortunately.

    I don't know if you've seen this kind of second handle, that's just an example (non-affiliate link), but for straight handled tools that also need force they're a back saver.
