fairing inside hull

I have been having a hard time fairing the inside of the hull.I have tried all kinds of sanders and haven't been able to get the strips very consistantly even at all. Actually it looks crummy. And the worst part is when I went to apply the epoxy seal coat all the glue that I couldn't/didn't see shows up like a sore thumb.I am fussy and I want to solve this problem.What are you all doing ? I haven't been able to make a custom convex plane yet but I suspect this is the only way to go. Thanks Rick :(

A Convex Surform works GREAT, then sand paper
