Stripping Paint
IMPORTANT: Read the general operating and safety information sections of this owner's
manual before using the heat gun.
The best method of paint removal
Note: Do not use the heat gun on surfaces that can be damaged by heat, such as vinyl-
coated paneling, siding or window frames.
When removing paint from window frames, the heat gun will soften the putty.
Be careful not to gouge the putty with the scraper. The putty will rm up after it
cools.
Do not use the heat gun on insulating laminated window glass such as
Thermopane. The glass edge expansion may break the edge seal.
When scraping fascia, do not overheat the edges of the asphalt shingles
protruding over the edge of the sheathing. Too much heat will melt the asphalt.
IMPORTANT: The removal of paint by heat gun is safe if the above guidelines are used,
but always keep either a container of water or an ABC re extinguisher (suitable against
Class A, B and C type res) within reach.
