Shrinking Hammers: Useful in the final stages of panel finishing when slightly stretched areas of metal can be encountered. In using this type of beater, small amounts of metal are forced into the spaces created by the cross milling. They can also be used on cold aluminium but working on sheet steel will be quicker if heat is applied to the area. Whenever possible, such beating should be carried out on the inside of the panel to minimise resurfacing needed prior to painting. Syke-Pickavant does not recommend using the same individual tools on aluminium and steel.
