I was grinding the rust out of my longs, when I got the notion to keep going. Has anyone done this with decent results? The hypothesis would be that a brass cup would generate less heat than a sanding disk. Any thoughts.
I should also state that my homebuilt air compressor is a little on the whimpy side. Quincy pump 3.8 scfm @ 100 psi. (probably not enough to run a d/a) Thoughts and criticism (on the idea) are welcome. thanks bryan. This is my second post. Please be patient. |

QUOTE Eastwood has a brillow pad type paint stripper (probably a 3M or notron product) yes you can get these to mount on air or electric grinders. Use a coarse Scotch-brite type disc, theses dont load up with paint and goo, dont impart alot of heat into the parts, and last pretty long. That compressor is wimpy for driving constant duty air tools. This is an example of a suitable disc |
