Best Tool for Paint/Rust Removal?
I need to remove some old paint/light rust from the body of my truck. I don't want to damage the metal underneath though. I was thinking about something like this.
I have not used these and wanted to know if this is the best option, or is there something better? Thanks.

I don't like them in the cup form at all. If you can find the disk, it works much better.
My latest project, I used this type
Poly-X, Paint & RustRemoval Disc 4.5in Cup Style
which I liked a lot better than the strands. I think its the same material, but the strands seemed to go everywhere.

That or their stripping discs in either the 7" or 4.5" size also work well.

No, the stripping discs do not remove metal at all. You can lean into the metal with no problem and it will just leave the metal in a ready to hit with epoxy condition.Although no need to lean just use the leading edge and move along the panel.
