That's the reason I originally bought my planner. Got sick of sanding
old paint off some lumber. It worked great, the blades were still
OK. If you don't have a dust collector of some sort, you may want to
consider one now. And watch out for nails! DAMHIKT

Go for it. Keep the blades afterwards and use them for first passes
on recycled timber.

I did exactly this and the planer was fine. Keep the planing light and make
sure you properly dispose of the shavings, as they make the shavings highly
combustible...
