THIS IS A VERY POWERFUL TOOL
By RennyVerified Purchaser from Los Angeles, CA on 2/4/2008
Pros:
Removes Paint
Cons:
Hard To Handle
Best Uses:
Outdoor Only
Describe Yourself:
Novice
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

This is a very powerful tool and is also hard to control. This tool should only be used by trained professionals. Easily damages wood if you don't know how to use it. Not for the novice or do-it-yourself homeowner. Not for detailed work.

Low Quality, Messy

Bottom Line:

The product is expensive to purchase and expensive to operate. It does a poor quality job of removing paint. The first time we attempted to replace the disc the holding mechanism broke.
