So you use much smaller sanding blocks ? Something like this 3M kit ? ($138 at Amazon)Kevin, not at all....my comment was expressing the minor, if noticable at all, differences in the pics I've posted. Appreciate the interest as always.
Beth, that block is far too bulky and not something I'd use, think that Christmas gift you get and know it'll never migrate out of the closet. I use Ames and Hutchins blocks, not available anymore AFAIK, that and a couple 3m blocks that look much like Durablocks, but only for certain tight areas. Will never use Durablocks again, they leave noticable innacuracies.
Curvy beauty, yes, but like all those, HIGH maintenance!
Nice soft top. Who's is that?View attachment 16117
Put a shift-kit in Cale's Grand Prix to help make the 4T65E last longer. Also did oil change, and installed new snow tires on it.
I need to pick up some rear brake pads, and new valve stems to replace one that started leaking before we put it back together.
Also need to pull the ignition switch to solve a problem with the HVAC.

I've always used my ducky, or palm foam block. I start out with the minimum grit possible, usually a very light 1200, followed by a thorough 1500, then 2000. I'm going to invest in the trizak, as I could probably cut the time down to 20% or so. Thoroughly dry after each grit to expose your work.Cutting clear…..
It is a 65 Chevelle that belonged to my friend Dan who passed away a couple years ago. I'm fixing some driveability issues for his wife Cathy so she can enjoy it.Nice soft top. Who's is that?
Brrrrr.....
