Shoot, I didn’t think to check there. I ended up buying a cheapo $50 Westinghouse to use for the hour. I have some work to do on my car this weekend that will take me into the night to finish that’s why I needed it. But I will be buying the one MG man posted. Thanks all…

there are some simple ones which light more diffused like a fluorescent bulb which might be better for your application than a strong beam type hunting one
i know a tailor who uses them

Looking for paint remover to remove bright aluminium oil paint from a metal surface. Need something to work like brake fluid on paint but brake fluid is not an option. I'm seeking a chemical alternative as opposed to sand blasting etc

[Chimera]

it has paint strippers selling

i bought a gallon to use on a oil drum i was turning into a bbq grill

when you paint it on, the paint raises up and you can scrape it off in junks very easily

[*KRONIK*]

Most auto-paint shops have strippers selling

There is the trinity in the can, works great

But it have one they sell in a green "rum bottle" dont recall the brand, but the thing melts off paint effortlessly

Hey 2nrs. Have a unique application needing a long sds extension or even a 2.5" earth auger that can drill into about 3 feet deep inside of a 3" pvc pipe.

Sizing proving hard to find. Any recommendations for rental?

i once made a 3” auger
cut some pieces of flat steel and welded to a pipe and just turned it by hand
in soft dirt is was easy to go a couple feet by hand and throwing some water in the hole

You can either buy an extension or cobble one from steel rod or tube. SDS+ extensions are about $1000 for 18 inches at SSL.

You will easily find the ¼" hex-shank square driver bit. Most electrical suppliers that sell Klein or Greenlee will have have a square tip screwdriver for use in electrical panels.

There are different sizes. No. 2 is the most common.

Some of those AC places have a 7 in one screwdriver that carries a bit like this. Bonus you get three nut drivers, size 1 and 2 flat and Phillip head, the square head and a valve removal tool.

What is the best 5gal vacuum for around 800
I am seeing shop vac --800
Stanley--700.00
Total
Total being the cheapest --500
For diy car care, so lets say 5-6 times a mth

[maj. tom]

Shop-Vac or Stanley. They're both more or less the same for home user level. I use a 2.5 gallon, 2.5hp Shop-Vac for car cleaning and it's small, powerful and portable in one hand with an extension cord.

Only thing is see if they have a regular supply of the bags too. For covid the Shop-Vac had supply problems and I think they closed down manufacturing in USA and moved to China. But you can get the bags on Amazon reliably if you can't find it local.

[pugboy]

shop vac has most after
market filters avail

[*KRONIK*]

I would say shop-vac also

Cuz a vacuum without service parts is a waste of time

You must be able to get the filters, bages etc easily

Bhagwansinghs and homestore (in the east) carry lots of bags and extension etc for shopvac

[X_Factor]

I bought a 3hp 6 gallon Stanley
750$

[fokhan_96]

Anyone know where sells these batteries.
The brand doesn't matter, but has to be size 123 and 3V.

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

^ CR123
check those camera shops or a house alarm installer - they use those in smoke detectors

[Chimera]

Have this for sale for $4000 negotiable if anyone interested. Probably used it twice. Bought it when I was doing renovations. Check it out on YouTube to see its capabilities.
