Anyone have the Snap-on molding removal tool? Snap-on part number MR2000. Wondering if its worth the price or not,around 250 bucks I believe

Found this one on ebay but too bad its in the UK :(

One of the body men used to use one,always scratched the hell out of the paint,great on blend panels :rolleyes: If you were careful I'm sure they work well,and very fast.
I have a spatula that is about 2 feet long and I sharpened the end,leftover from my paint mixing days.Works well to get behind those big wide claddings,I charge the bodymen 5 bucks to borrow it graemlins/thumbsup.gif Mike

I've used one made by 3M(i think) that has a similar end to that one,but it goes in an air chisel. Works pretty good. Its about $30 i think.

Got the one that goes on an air chisel(3M)...never used it on the air chisel... :rolleyes:
I usually just move it around holding it in my hand (the motion is hard to describe). Doesn't scratch if your careful but also doesn't matter cause if your taking the emblem off it's gettin sanded and painted. We usually have the new emblems already ordered so when we take one off and it's still perfectly fine we just keep it in a box.(we have a box at the shop with about a thousand perfectly good emblems) :eek:
GOOD TOOL ;)
