I searched the forum for "scaler" and "descaler" and nothing, nada, niete,...
So I'm buying a pneumatic scaler like this:
http://www.harborfreight.co....taf?Itemnumber=1108 Does anyone here have experience with them? The one above seems too heavy duty. It seems the needles would come out with too much force for just scraping paint, rust, and cleaning welds up. Are there versions with smaller needles? I didn't find any in my searches.
Also, anyone here with experience that can tell me anything I should know before I start with it? What sort of impact will this make on the material?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
(I actually picked-up a scaler up at harbor freight today, but I'm not sure it will do what I need. I have an area where I need to clean but can't get the normal grinder-brush, scraper in. Though sandblasting is a option, for the amount of area I'm cleaning I don't wanna do all the work of putting my car on dollies and rolling it on the driveway, setting out plastic, setting up my blaster, making sure it's dry, then blasting the little areas while getting coal slag stuck inside my chassis
)
Thanks guys,
Michael
