Claim:
1. A re-conformable material removal system comprising: a head or receiver portion having an inner chamber; a plurality of material removal members, arranged in side-by-side relationship to one another, having first, actuator ends disposed in the inner chamber of the head or receiver portion and second, surface contact ends projecting outwardly through an opening in the head or receiver portion to define a contact edge, one or more of the material removal members including a core surrounded by an outer shell; and a biasing member disposed within the inner chamber of the head or receiver portion between each of the plurality of material removal members and a top of the head or receiver portion, to yieldably bias the material removal members into an extended position, wherein placement of the re-conformable material removal system against a surface results in yielding of the biasing member and movement of the material removal members into the inner chamber when the surface is uneven, resulting in a conforming contact edge that is continuously adjustable and conformable to the contour of the surface.
