The Diamabrush is not available in all states as of yet. They are not in AZ either. Go to their website and call them. They can tell you which HD's might have them. I was very disappointed when I found out and am now considering using the Edco grinder.

Thanks for the info on the Edco. The rental place did say it was a single head, I believe an 11". Can I hose down the garage with the Edco to minimize dust? How much dust are we talking here? Also, can I get away with just using the Edco and not having to rent a hand grinder too for the corners?

Will the Edco grinder take off my paint and sealer like the Diamabrush will? Is this my best and cheapest option?

Damn, I contacted Diamabrush and they have not moved to the AZ area as of yet. She said it could be headed here in Feb '13. For anyone else looking, she did say she could look up which stores would have it available for rental. I also called another tool rental 'A to Z Equipment' and they had...

Paul, I believe the paint is removing easy because it was put on top of sealed concrete. Does that make sense? Scott, It seems to be only a coat or 2 of paint, some areas come up very easy and some I can barely get the 4" razor under. Should I at least attempt to scrape the whole floor before...

Thanks for the response. If I decide to rent a diamond brush (if I can find one) do I still need to manually scrape the paint that is coming up or will the diamond take this off for me? Also how long does this brush take to remove a sealer? 400 sq/ft.

Hi guys, first post/question. I decided to epoxy my garage floor which has previously been painted and bought a Rustoleom solvent based kit. I'm not sure what paint was used on the floor. First issue: the old paint is chipping away pretty easy with a razor, so I assume I need to remove all the...
