Default Re-curving mylar on a glider

The Mylar is originally curved by passing the strip through a set of curved,
heated rollers. Complicated enough, all by itself (g) . . . to do the chore
with the Mylars still attached to the plane is beyond my admittedly limited
experience.


I am interested in finding out more about this roller process?
Any pictures or detailed descriptions available?
For my projects in the past, I successfully made my own curved Mylar
strips in 5ft sections
