Hello, a tenant moved out this past weekend, and we stopped by after they had left.  The only damage to the property was from were they backed the moving truck into the a spot and dented the aluminum flashing at the top of the garage door frame.  I wouldn't have noticed it if they hadn't of tried to touch it up with white spray paint and got over spray on the beige siding.  Is there a way to come up with a cost to bill them or do we just let it go?

@Wilson Davis get a garage door company or handyman to give you a quote to fix so that you have backup for the deduction from the security deposit. I hope that you have pre move in photos and after move out photos
