Review on 🎨 Optimal Red Devil 3040 Paint-Strippers by Jonathan Ulsth

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Durable, efficient paint scraper

I use this in combination with a heat gun and paint strippers and it makes a good paint scraper. The dual blade is strong and has a good angle so I don't bruise my knuckles when using it. The blades are strong and I was even able to sharpen them. The wooden handle is strong and tough, and I prefer it over the plastic one. The only thing I don't like is that the blade is not screwed but inserted into a groove. This was a problem when changing blades as the slot can get clogged and sealed with softened paint if I use paint remover gel. Otherwise it's a very good scraper, much better and more durable than the cheaper discounter junk (been there, that's it). For convenience, I buy them at my local hardware store. I usually buy Red Devil products.

Pros
  • Painting supplies and tools
Cons
  • Non-automatic
