Anyone using this method on a guitar needs to be extremely careful...note that even in this video, the cutting wheel damaged the material that the screw was being removed from (a hinge in this case). If that were a guitar's wooden body instead of a hinge, it would have nice permanent grooves cut into it from the rotary blade. Just be careful, that's all I'm sayin'.

What the two users below are saying is true but this also works when you round a screw head for example. This video illustrates just one scenario in which this tool can be used. I've used my dremel many times and it's saved me a lot of work and hastle.
or tape over the screws before you paint them...
