Ok, so today I go back and get a little medieval on that deck.
32 minutes into using the diamabrush it loses a blade, what the heck, I find the blade, but am missing some type of clip to hold it in place. Call sherwin williams where I bought it if they have replacement blades…nope. Call another sherwin williams farther away, wait on hold… nope. Go to amazon…10 dollars more for replacement blades than the whole brush?!? Well, seemed to working well for 32 minutes, that is over a dollar a minute to rent it.
So I went back to what I know, belt sander, random orbital, scrapers. It is now about 75% stripped to bare wood now. I’ll post pics. Wrote an email to diamabrush will let people know what they have to say.
Since I am experimenting on this job, I am going to hit it with chems again to see if a partial strip will let the rest melt off like butter, not crossing my fingers though. Here is a pic or two for your perusal.
