Hi Everyone,
 
I am learning how to repair some dents on my wagon.  I did some dent pulling which was a ton of fun and then we used some filler.  I had one evening of supervision with sanding and then was left on my own tonight.  I made some mistakes but learned a lot.    Mostly I learned there are a lot of curves on a valiant.  It is hard to use a normal size block (width) with out getting to metal on one of the curves.  Any tips out there?

Thank you

Robin

Hi Robin,pros use a tough sponge instead of the block. So you reach any curves . Hope that helps. Regards  Fred  / 1960 Valiant

The third one from the top is round:
Any auto paint store will have them individually or roll bar padding ooor water pipe insulation ooooooooooooor a swimming noodle (you know the long dense round foam floats that you can wrap around yourself).
