ive used the multi tool and the abrasive sanding pads to do some.
the flat area's and edges with the multi tool and the curved edges with the pads.
I'm looking for a device that was promoted on TV some years back, but cannot recall the name and cannot find anything remotely close to it. The nearest thing I can get is a flap disk for a grinder , or . are close but it was something like a sander/grinder, a detail sander is no good, a linear sander is way too expensive.
My requirement is a device to clean off the loose paint on the mouldings around my colonial windows in preparation for painting. I could scrape and hand sand them all, but I want to finish painting sometime this century!![]()
I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message...

My neighbor took a short cut and smashed the bad ones so the insurance co replaced them for him
just use chemical paint stripper , much faster and easier if you blast off the dregs with a pressure washer.
Thanks Vroom Vroom, so far that sounds to be the easiest. If I tried your suggestion hinekadon, insurance might get a little suspicious, too many need "fixing". I'm hoping to avoid the multi tool and sander because it would take forever, fandtm666. I still want to know what the tool was called, though.

There is a fine line between "Hobby" and "Madness"
Asked my housemate -- What is the "sander" called?
He assures me the answer is "the painter's apprentice"....lol =)
The nearest thing I have found so far is a which might actually perform the task so desired.

The principle's the same, but more along the lines of a brushcutter with multiple bits of line.

You want to be a bit careful using them on timber though. I had a Nylon brush, similar to the one in the second link, and it had slightly abrasive nylon bristles. I used it to strip the bark off a live edge, iron bark, timber slab, when I built my bar. It actually removed the bark, and some of the softer wood between the grain. On the hardwood live edge it worked quite well, as it accentuated the natural grain.
These are from

'Tis why I was looking for the particular tool because using, say, an angle grinder is going to be too severe a treatment. A variable speed drill, even on the slowest setting, might also be too severe, or not severe enough and maintaining a constant speed could also be an issue.
Realistically the "best" solution, although the most tedious, would be to scrape and sand by hand. I am attempting to alleviate the tedium.
