FWIW, and not ot steal Ricks thread, this 993 was done with only a dolly and a shrinking disc. Needed NO filler when done. Only a couple thick ( 3 ) coats of primer. Don't get suckerd into buying any expensive tools (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) http://kahikocustoms.com/auto-projects/993-collision-damage |

I am using on the Mercedes to finish the body seams after welding the panels. I'll have to take some photos and add it to my welding thread. |

I have a shrinking disk but have not used it since I don't have a tool to spin it to 3500 RPM (I think). What tool do you use to spin it up fast enough to be effective and at what RPM? |

Harbor freight angle grinder. If you have a larger size disc get the big boy. A regular 4" grinder will run it, but the discs edge will be RIGHT at your fingers. I bumped it once and cut through a leather welding glove (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) Later went and got the bigger grinder |
