[QUOTE="Makaw, post: 495055, member: 25180"] Started doing some paint prep work on the transom. This was after using a polycarbonate abrasive wheel on my angle grinder. It worked ok. I was hoping the disc would be more flexible and provide more uniform sanding because they look kind of spongy. But the poly is actually quite rigid. Laying it flat didn’t work well so I ended up quickly gliding over with the edge of the disc, hence the pattern you see here. I’m not going for complete paint removal, just making sure the surface is prepped enough for primer. I’ll probably random orbital sand and do some hand sanding around seams and rivets. [/QUOTE]
