Fender rolling?

Post by goob_os101 »

I am rubbing a bit in the rear and need to roll them. Does anyone have a roller or know where I can get them rolled?

Thanks.

If you are just rubbing on the lip, you can use a wooden bat and just roll it back and forth with some force and see if that does the trick before buying a delrin fender roller.

I'm sure if you call around there's a shop that will roll them for you. Maybe someplace will let you rent a fender roller?

I always thought that a fender roller would be a good "group buy" kind of tool.

i swear i remember someone in mid-a over at nabisco talking about a community roller. might be worth asking there too, if you haven't already.

Also Use a heat gun or at least let the car sit in the sun and heat up first. Depending on how much you roll you may end up cracking the clear coat. Heating it up will help make it a lil more flexible.

There was someone on Craigslist that was renting one out. I think they where in Fort Washington.
