What sanding discs could I use on an angle grinder or orbital sander to restore this and possibly mirror finish it?
Go full idiot. 60. 120. 320. 1000. 2000. Then a diamond paste that is so microscopic they can't even give a grit rating. Do it all by hand. You. Will take care of that pan. More on reddit.com

best angle grinder wheel/disc for getting rid of rust on a wheelbarrow
I would use a wire brush attachment. Just be sure to wear goggles, gloves and long sleeves. Sometimes a bristle will get loose and you can get a wire splinter, trust me, they are annoying. But that will get your wheelbarrow clean with no damage to it. More on reddit.com

What thickness of cutting disc should I use to cut metal with angle grinder?
3mm discs can do light grinding. 1mm discs will explode. For an Ikea part I'd use the thinnest one available and go very slowly to avoid heating it up too much. Neither will leave you with anything approaching a clean finish. More on reddit.com

r/woodworking on Reddit: ?Angle grinder for sanding?
May 18, 2021 -

So I've been serious about woodworking for about 2 years now. I've slowly been adding tools and learning to do things with the tools have. I also watch a lot of woodworking videos. There are a ton of videos (sped up) of people building things on Facebook. It finally dawned on me they were sanding their projects using angle grinders. I had bought an angle grinder years ago for a project and then never used it again. So I picked up some sanding discs and tried it on a refinishing project. Worked great! Why do I never hear anyone talk about this way of sanding? I've done a bunch of research in the last 2 years and and never heard it mentioned. How about it Redditors, who uses an angle grinder for sanding?

Tool review: Sanding Discs
December 19, 2024 - We were pleased to see that a handful of 180-grit discs—Bosch, Gator Power, Makita, Mirka Abranet, Norton 3X and Norton MultiAir—delivered a near scratch-free finish that would be acceptable to all but the fussiest of woodworkers.

Sanding Discs - Wood Sanding Disc for Angle Grinder
I would have liked to see a bit wider kerf, which would have allowed the coating of these blades to last a bit longer than it does.The steel I cut was a medium hard framing steel, as was the deck screw, which is much harder than typical wood fasteners.I'd choose a bimetal blade with 8-tpi for wood demolition unless a lot of deck screws are involved. These blades are best suited for metal, as described.I was able to make a low angle plunge cut in wood and soft metal.
