I have also used a wire brush in a dia drinder 32000 rpm , plenty of PPE required and a hat , and the wire brush doesn't last very long , a zink based primer as a base coat to start .

Tough getting into metal cabinet corners and sheet metal bends with a rotary wire brush. Sooner or later (and often there's a lot of sooner) it gets down to hand work with a scraper and paint remover, and maybe little bits of sandpaper.

awemawson:
nah .......   sooner or later you get to realise the joys of a grit blaster . . . .    soooo convenient  :ddb:

vtsteam:
Well, yah, if I had that I wouldn't be using a sander or brush in the first place!

Mick,

I take it that the panel beaters hammer,  shown with the steel bars prior to forging,  was just for show. I can't imagine a skilled man such s yourself actually hammering the bars down using a planishing hammer.

The hammer I was always told NEVER to beat anything but a panel with.
