I am adding a company logo to the outside face of a cylindrical surface.  To make the logo I added 3 different stepped height wrapped surfaces that come out maybe .06" offset from the cylindrical face at max.  The company wants sand castings of this part, so it forces me to add draft in lieu of the need to pull the cast piece straight out after casting (normally i've just been doing this type of thing with lost wax investment castings - way easier).

Anyway, is there an easy way to add draft to a wrapped feature?  I have found one example of someone else doing something similar (though simpler) by using lofted surfaces, but I have been trying that and it has proven to be kind of a pain in this case.  I just want some easier way to do this, but it doesn't seem like SW has any tool that can easily add draft to wrapped perimeter faces.  Any ideas? 

Thanks
