Builds

Yes sure we can

1. Grind the area that needs a build flat, keeping it as steep as possible

2. Cut out build, use Strong for hard heels, rug for soft heels.

3. Using ATOM to glue builds apply a thin coat right to the edge of the heel block only.

4. Grind the outside close to the heel block with rough wheel then close with fine wheel or

miniband. Then grind the bottom level by do the 2 ends of the build first then the middle. Grind

onto the heel block as this is less likely to rip the build off.
