FURNO 300
The best method of paint removal
Move the Heat Gun slowly and steadily forward at an angle to the
surface, pointing the nozzle in the direction of motion. This allows you
to scrape safely outside the hot air stream and keeps the scraper and
the scraped surface cooler.
A.
Warm air preheats the
surface.
B.
Paint is softened by hot air.
A + B. Deep penetration of heat
over total area.
C.
Paint can be easily scraped
off as soon as it is softened
and the gun is moved
forward.
D.
Stripped surface allowed to
cool.
Note: Do not use the Heat Gun on surfaces that can be damaged
by heat, such as vinyl-coated paneling, vinyl-coated siding
or vinyl-coated 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 firm 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 facia, 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 a Heat Gun is safe if the
above guidelines are used, but always keep either a container of
water or an ABC fire extinguisher (suitable against Class A, B and
C type fires) within reach
Cleaning and Maintenance

the tool into a liquid.
