Hi,

Some good info here:

For light cutting anyhting from a basic 500W one will do, keep an eye on the sheds/Screwfix/Argos etc for special offers.

Slitting discs are very handy but easily damaged, so get a few of those. Once worn to a smaller size they're handy for getting in tight spaces.

Best to practice on some scrap metal before doing anything on the car!

cheers, Pete.

Especially when your using a wire brush as part of the job, you've got to remove the guard to accommodate those things making it a Royal PITA! Then you have to resist the temptation to cut corners by not replacing the guard prior to abrasive disc use, as the day wears on the temptation grows.....
