Prazi USA PR9000 Putty Chaser

This works exactly as claimed. The only thing that is important is that you use a fast drill (as mentioned in the ad and instructions). This pretty much means no cordless drills. You also need a steady hand.

Purchased the Prazi Putty Chaser to remove old window glaze. The item works, but not well. The depth adjustment does not stay in place and using a drill is awkward. After using the item a short period of time I came up with three other alternatives using a router. The router works much better and faster. I chalk it up to a $15 lesson in learning to do with what you have on-hand.

Really does remove old window putty. Requires a careful hand not to gouge out the window frame. High quality for years of use.

Not well made. The bushing/mutton spacer is plastic and wears very fast. Doesnot remove glazing well and grooves wood on muttons when it does. Worn out after 1 window of 6 panes. Cannot recommend this product at 1/2 the price.

There is as far as I can tell no redeeming value to this "tool". Better you should use a sharp stick or a screw driver. There is a need for a tool such as this one purports to be, but this rendition is not the answer. I know what this tool is attempting to do, however it is obvious the designer has no idea how one designs tools that meet the rigorous requirements of such work. Aside from the quality issues the dam thing is downright dangerous. This tool is a total waste!!!

I can see the issues that homeowners are having with this tool. It should not be advertised as a DIY tool. It took me about 6" of glazing removal before I got the hang of it. I have been working with power tools in the construction industry for 25 years.

I am not a skilled craftsman but am in the business of doing handyman work. This device was just what I needed to remove glazing from old windows. However, I could not control it very well even with a variable speed drill. Just need to be very careful with it cause it digs into the wood very easily.

it works
