I bought the cheap single speed first and then bought the variable speed. Single speed just burns up the cutting tools.

Depends on what you are doing ... if you are only cutting thru or scraping off sealant, the single speed should be ok.

Great idea. What did you use as a cleaner to prep once you scraped?

I used Acetone. Relatively cheap and easy to get. Be careful around paint. Ok for brief contact.
