Trimming Tool

[SteelStacks]

What is the best tool to use for fender and bumper trimming. My tires still rub a little when turning into certain driveways. I see a lot of people use a dremel. If so which dremel model should I use? What about a sawzall or angle grinder?

I personally would use what ever tool you are the most comfortable with any dremel, air saw, grinder etc would work its just what you are comfortable swinging around next to the paint on your truck with.

Just trimmed mine today I used an air cutoff wheel and an air body saw they seemed to work pretty well

I heard a dremel will melt the paint. Is this true?

No, you've have to be running it at insane speeds to do that.

I have a simple angle grinder from Harbor Freight with a 6 amp motor. I paid $30 for it. Cuts through thin metal in a breeze. If you want something for actual heavy grinding though 6 amps are not going to do it very quickly.

A sawzall is rather large and the blades do not cut as precise as an angle grinder. Not really the best route.
