I've used those, and while they do work reasonably well, they only last
about 10 minutes in the grinder - not great value.



How did you get 10 minutes out of one? Catch an edge, or just some
rough crusty rust, and they're worn out in 10 seconds.

I got the whole of my keel (Bavaria 32 - quite a lot of rust) cleaned up
with one and a bit, and I'd have thought that uner 10 quid a keel wasn't
bad value.
