Any good, safer replacement for a wire wheel on a bench grinder?

Maybe it is using your cookies.
Try erasing them and see if it still occurs.
I erase my cookies often as well as my history.
No good reason, just something I use to do to keep my computer clean. I am not sure if it does keep it clean with all the government tracking.

To the OP,
Sorry for running with the highjack.
Back to the original question.

I clicked the link in the quote above and it takes me to the US page.

Anyway, I have and use Evapo-Rust. But I don't have any Evapo-Dirt, Evapo-Old-Hard-Grease, or Evapo-Paint, so I use the wire wheel.

There is a really GREAT replacement. It's called a plastic beading machine. Just like a sandblaster, but shoots plastic beads. The plastic is WAY softer than the metal and takes off almost anything without removing metal at all.

The disadvantage is it takes a very good air supply and the plastic beads, while they DO get reused, are basically consummables eventually. But it will clean metal perfectly without removing ANY metal.

Find one and try out out ... you'll be a convert immediately.
