Default ultracoat and compound curves....advice

The wings of my 4*40 wings are tipped with balsa sanded to a smooth curve rather than the stock flat ends. I'm having a difficult time getting a smooth cover. This plane I decided to try Ultracoat as I had heard it was easier on compound curves. Before I give up and supercoat and sand and supercoat and sand for days, does anyone have any tricks? I have at my disposal a covering iron, heat gun, and trim solvent.

Thanks,
