[Public-List] Wagner PaintEater for doing your bottom.

Let's face it. I'm not getting any younger.  That means that over time, I
end up with "stuff" building up on my bottom.   While in the water I hire a
professional to try and keep the "stuff" in check, but each time I haul
out,  a more serious course of treatment is in order.

I'm wondering if anyone else has this "problem" and has use a Wagner
PaintEater (
https://www.amazon.com/Wagner-0513040-PaintEater-Paint-Remover/dp/B000FFYLJQ)
to address the build up.  Its a 4-1/2" disc sander that uses a 3M
spun-fiber disc spinning at 2,600 RPM.  The disc is supposed to "conform to
contours to provide consistent results on uneven surfaces".

Cant find a statement of "equivalent to xx0 grit sandpaper".  Replacement
discs are not cheap at about $12 each.  Dont know how long a disc would
last.  The quarter sheet sander that I used two years ago has a 2.4amp
motor.  The PaintEater has a 3.2amp motor.

Thoughts?
