Projects Are these worth a crap? Strippers inside

I was wondering about those.

 

I've ordered from these guys:
https://benchmarkabrasives.com/collections/surface-conditioning
But I got on their email list and waited for a deal to be offered. They do that often on some products.
Good service, close to the 3M stuff.

 

I buy a ton of stuff from them. I try and buy in bulk to get the deals and to cut down on my freight. I buy sleeves of the flapper discs.

 

I've been using those foam stripper pads for years, and whether they're inexpensive Amazon types, or expensive 3M types, they all seem to work well for me. I stripped my entire '39 Coupe down to bare metal using less than two of the cheapies, and in about 5-6 hrs. Only place I had more time into was the passenger door that had 5 layers of paint on it.
Besides being fast, they also don't remove metal like flapper discs do. So it's easier on the metal, and leaves the surface really nice and ready for primer.

 

That is probably correct, they both have their place. The SCT I like for large areas, and the stripper thingies for tighter spots.

 

Ok, now I feel stupid! What is the "SCT"?

I like strippers. Once I had one tell me how she was just doing this to work her way through school. So I went out and bought her a pack of pencils and a few note books and a big box of 64 Crayola crayons and gave them to her for a tip. It did not end well for me.
