Time to dive into some sanding on truck. I do not have a large compressor, 5 HP, 20 gallon 110 VAC. I do have a lot of electricity and some time. So, do electric sanders work well enough to sand the big parts? Or, is there a DA sander that will run well on a 5 gallon compressor.

I currently have an electric angle grinder. 10,000 RPM. I put a 4 1/2 inch wire wheel on it and it really ripped paint off the frame. Was too powerful for thinner metal... Afraid if I buy a sanding head and paper for this grinder it may take off more than paint. If I go electric would I need a variable speed sander. Please suggest known good equipment that is available. A big compressor is not an option at this time.
