Wagner PaintEater 4-1/2-inch Palm Grip Paint Removal Sander – Exterior Prep Power, 2,600 RPM

One-step exterior paint removal with precision

The Wagner PaintEater delivers aggressive paint removal while staying gentle on siding and trim, simplifying exterior prep in one efficient pass. Recognized with two industry seals, this tool, developed with 3M, is built for real world performance and dependable results.

Powerful performance you can feel

The unit features a 3.2 amp motor and up to 2,600 RPM, designed to tackle stubborn paint, oxides, and mildew while protecting wood, masonite, concrete, and steel beneath. The balance of speed and control helps you work steadily without sacrificing results.

Disc system that adapts to your surface

The 3M spun-fiber disc, paired with an open-web design, minimizes paint and dust buildup for smoother operation. The Flex-Disc System lets you switch between edge work to remove chips and flat work to feather edges, with a compact 4-1/2 inch disc that reaches tight spots and lap siding efficiently.

• Edge operation removes stubborn chips without gouging trim
• Flat operation feathers edges for ready-to-repaint surfaces
• Open-web disc design reduces clogging and debris buildup

Ergonomics and safety that support long days on the job

Designed for comfort, the PaintEater offers multiple hand positions, a retractable handle, and a soft-grip cover for fatigue reduction. A base shroud keeps hands away from the disc, while a Velcro strap secures the tool on ladders or rooftops. A silicone boot shields the on/off switch from dust and moisture.

• Lightweight, rugged body for easy transport between sites
• Right- or left-handed use with simple hand position changes
• Compact disc allows access to tight corners and behind fixtures
