- Not the 10520 — no claim crosses the 2-edge/4-edge systems, in either direction .
- Not the 10280, until that tool’s identity resolves — the refusal in section 2 is the page’s law .
- Not the carbide economy: a 10610 owner needs the 11170, and no steel card serves a MAXXGRIP PRO® head.
- Not a finishing tool in the sanding sense: the smooth edges leave a sandable surface, not a paint-ready one — feathering and dust-down still follow.
- And not a handheld blade: outside the holder it is 2-1/2 inches of unguarded edge.

How the pros run it
01
The stroke is the family’s
blade drawn toward you at a steep angle, downforce directly over the edge — on this parent, with the second hand on the knob, which roughly doubles controllable pressure without doubling fatigue. The full pull doctrine is the scrapers line doc’s and is cited, not restated. Specific to this blade: match the edge to the pressure. Rough edges reward the knob’s full two-handed downforce in heavy build; smooth edges want moderated pressure — they are finishing tools, and driving them like hogging edges chatters the surface they exist to refine. Read edges in raking light (a dull run reflects a bright line; a rolled burr glints along one face). And the governing boundary: this blade’s natural habitat — old, multi-coat, failing paint — is exactly where lead lives. Pre-1978 buildings are assumed lead-bearing; containment, wet methods, and RRP obligations on paid work are the scrapers line doc’s full section, inherited by every card (EPA — Lead RRP Program).
