They are ok for big flaky rust but I find that i like the way the metal looks after wire wheeling.  I go through two or three wire wheels a year a year (only one dewalt angle grinder as of yet.  The only part I hate is getting the little wires in my hide.  The needle scaler works but as you note it a fine way of producing noise.  Seems like more noise than work sometimes..........plus the compressor cycles constantly turning the pole barn into noise chamber!
