Watch Wes Work - I have all Three models of the original Super Scraper but in truthfulness I probably use the SS2 (2 inch wide) and the SS5 (5/8 of an inch wide the most) I think purchased my first one in 1999 or 2000 and over the years have acquired each new model as they came out because well it was a new model and had to be better right. The thing I like about the Super Scraper besides how good they work is the free resharpening service whenever they need it which for me is every couple years unless some rat happens to decide they like one of them more than I do which since I no longer work at dealership is a whole lot less of a problem. Now a days I am more likely to drop it on the ground and break the blade than have one walk off. PS the ending segment had me in tears especially your comments about the KZread SS (Safety Sallies and Sam's)

"I guess we should have one of those things . . . What's it called . . . A plan?" You crack me up.😂

Good compromise- I like the yellow finger discs for cast, white for aluminum and for the scotch pads rolocs, blue for both- finish with a stone or a known true flat sander and a good grit. I've used that method for 1.5L I-4's through 58L V-12's. Works well.
