I’m trying to test something out, but I can’t seem to find access to surfaces. I tried to go to the model tab but it’s not even there. Can someone help out?
The default surface tool has been removed from Studio.
Here’s a useful plugin that recreates it:

Roblox has deleted surfaces off of the studio, BUT the F3X tool still allows to use that feature.
You can also use plugins to make it work again. (Surface Tool - Studs Are Back! - Roblox)
(Building Tools By F3X (Plugin) - Roblox)
why was it removed? Was there something about it that had a negative impact?
I’m not sure. I’m guessing it no longer made sense to continue supporting it firsthand, so Roblox wanted to give this older functionality to the community.
I’m pretty sure Roblox wanted to delete the old features.
So how can I find the specific faces?
What do you mean?
There is a surface tool as a plugin, I’m pretty sure it works the same.

Most likely it will be fully removed in a year or so since the system is old and doesn’t work how it used to. Making a feature difficult to use or access is usually their first step before they remove things. Just by way of heads up.
