Using Norton Blaze Rapid Strip, Dave effectively stripped the entire car of multiple layers of paint, rust and corrosion. Better yet, he only had to use one disc to complete the entire job.

Due to the disc’s flexible construction, the grills and the tyre wells of the car could be stripped without any gouging.
Dave from Auto Refurb swiftly ordered another batch of Blaze Rapid Strip discs as he was impressed with the speed and efficiency of the product.
