    There's an air tool that hooks up to an air compressor for cleaning gaskets off engines. Anyone know what they are called?

    What are those disks with the rubber fingers that are made specifically for gaskets?

    Is that the one FFDP is talking about? I think you're referring to a different one.

    scotch pads can score aluminum, if you use one too coarse...bristle bruhes will NEVER score..I use them all the time at work

    Feels like I texted this to ya the other night. But hey..I need the post count



    I'm a fan of the 3M pads, however I'll be looking into the bristle ones. Might be nice to have an alternative.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.
