 |
|
Hello Guys I have a 69 standard with a wavy roof.(no huge dents to knock out just waves here and there) I need to finish it for paint. My stiff long board is giving me poor results. What can I use for the compound curves of that beetle roof? What are some recomendations?
Thx for the help in advance

I like the super flex K-blocks for curved surfaces - I seem to mostly use the 9" but I also have the 16" which is handy for long softer curves.

I actually can't follow the tcp website to find the blocks I use - they may be discontinued - seems the link I provided only goes to firmflex blocks and a super flex is only available as a 32" block?...
