Hi Lyn, thanks for posting this report and especially the video – it’s very helpful seeing your technique in action! I imagine it must have taken quite a bit of trial and error to arrive at such a slick method – thanks for persevering and sharing what you learned. I tried using a larger pistol-style hot air gun, myself, and quickly gave up on it because its nozzles were too big and it only had two different temperature/airflow settings.
I think this will be a good method for more experienced DIY’ers to try, depending on the cost of heat guns where they live – for some reason ones like yours are really expensive here in Canada, like $200.00 to $350.00, but I see they’re much more reasonably priced in other countries.
I’m going to feature this post on the blog so more people will see it.
