Do you recommend a handheld burnishing machine for removing rust?

Does anyone own or had the opportunity to use a hand held 'burnishing machine?'

Do they recommend them?

I'm only thinking of removing rust.

Cheers.

Re: Burnishing Machine

I haven't had the opportunity @Noyade. They look like they'd do one specific task very well. Unfortunately, I barely have room to store tools that can do several jobs.

See something interesting? Give it the thumbs up!

Re: Burnishing Machine

Hi @MitchellMc 

 

I went generic. So generic in fact, there is no brand name and it arrived in a plain brown box with instructions that are inappropriate.

But it does work. Weather hasn't been good but I tried it out on a stainless steel bench yesterday that was covered in sap, oil, glue, mildew, etc.

Twenty seconds....

Same here, but I've reached a point in life where I order dessert before the main meal - so I like to try news things (if affordable) before my turn arrives.

Cheers.
