    Re: Pigtails - Need help figuring out cause?

    Thank you for the insight. We know they need to cure longer. I think I have them convinced to look at the paint system in detal and add a baking source to speed the process. As far as hard blocks I have found that it’s difficult to get the orange peel flat without it. I use soft blocks on contours, of course.

    The above is a medium soft rubber hand backing pad from Meguiar's.


    It fits a half sheet perfectly. I show it because we sell it but I've also been using it since going to work for Meguiar's back in 1987.


    Have you ever used one of these?

    PM me your shipping address and I'll send you one to inspect and test out. Then share your thoughts as I would respect your opinion.
