An electric 'paint stripper' - must be used carefully when removing any old decals.
Electrical device producing a flow of heated air that is used to break the epoxy bond between a graphite shaft and a club head. The heat gun is usually used in conjunction with some type of specialized shaft removal device, such as a shaft puller. (See “Shaft Puller.”)

Electrical device producing a flow of heated air that is used to break an epoxy bond during repair. The heat gun is usually used in conjunction with some type of specialized shaft removal device, such as a shaft puller. (See "Shaft Puller.") Also used to make ferrule removal easier.
An electrically controlled gun for softening, curing, drying, preheating, and welding plastics, as well as shrinking of thermally reducible tubing.
Also known as a thermal or embossing gun. A hobby tool that produces heat, but not air. It's used primarily to emboss.
A device that forces warmed air onto a painted surface and softens the paint so it can be removed. Heating and burning lead based paint makes dangerous fumes and vapors. If a heat gun must be used, it should not be warmed above 1100° F.
Also called a heat tool or embossing gun; blows extremely hot air that will melt embossing powder. Do not use near photos or other delicate materials. Close Window
A heat tool that focuses very hot air to a precise area. It is used in heat embossing. The heat melts the embossing powder and creates a slightly raised design on the paper. See Emboss
Device, much like a hair dryer, which changes electricity to heat with a blower to aim that heat at a surface, to soften paint for removal or to accelerate drying.
