For how much I would use one today I can't justify the outlay - a recommended cheapo might be an option.

I think mine costs about £12 with assorted tools,

I use one of these. Did all my polishing and powder coating removal ( used a small grinding bit ). Hours and hours of fairly heavy duty use and I likes that it was 170w. Flexible extension is available and really useful.
Highly recommended.

My Von Haus tool arrived yesterday so I quickly made short work of removing the powder coating from the three affected areas.

On fitting the brake shoes again it was clear that there is still not enough room to fit even a thin washer between the split pin & brake shoes. I can only assume that the after market brake shoes do not allow for the fitting of a washer unless fitted a very thin washers with very very thin split pins.

As the rear brake worked previously I'm happy enough that the split pins will hold the brake shoes in place. On the plus side the new tool will come in handy for quite a few other jobs in the garage.
