When restoring windows, be extra gentle in order to protect the glass. Make sure the bottom shield edge of
the tool is placed along the edge of the putty you intend to remove. Avoid directing infrared heat onto the
glass. See Diagram 1.
First remove the paint and then the window putty using a putty chisel, for example. It is possible to reheat the
paint and putty. Heating time depends on the properties of the wood, the putty, type of paint and
climate conditions.
When working on window sash mountings, use a thin piece of wood covered with aluminum foil
or aluminum tape. It reflects heat radiation and prevents cracking of the facing glass, see Diagram 2.
- It is very helpful to always use high quality scrapers for efficient paint removal.
For an even better results, use scrapers that you place on the surface and pull towards you, see Diagram 3.
When removing paint from textured surfaces, use the angle support and scraper as shown in the diagram 4.
- Remember that the metal parts of this power tool are very hot and may cause burns if you come into
contact with them. Always use heat-protective gloves.
- It is important to remember that working on a surface under the Speedheater Infrared Paint Remover
is never necessary but might facilitate scraping heavily profiled surfaces.
