Will this remove the lettering paint and leave the baked on paint?** A: This product will remove all paint if you are not careful. **Q: Need to remove some elastomeric paint from a deck, anyone used this product for that sort of thing?** A: Could work, but would likely clog the disc. These are best for removing costings that will create dust and not build up in **Q: 3m item 03173, add shows a (3pack) but what is the price. or do you have to buy 3 @ 9.40. ?** A: the 9.40 price is from Amazon, so I am not really sure what they are doing. I am guessing for 9.40 you get just one wheel. **Q: I have already polished steel parts with a wire wheel, and they're bright. What affect on appearance will using this have?** A: My guess is it will be a duller metal polished finished. I've only used on aluminum and it left a gray matte finish. I was stripping to repaint so finish wasn't a concern. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I won’t stop buying these *by J***J on August 19, 2026* I have used these for many years to clean rust on Winnebago windshield frames.
