IMPORTANT:  If the blower motor in the heat gun does not turn on when the switch is set to either LOW or HIGH, turn the switch OFF immediately.  The heating element will burn out if it is not cooled by the blower.

Stripping Paint
IMPORTANT:  Read the general operating and safety information sections of this owner’s manual before using the heat gun.
The heat gun heats up the surface and causes the paint to soften, at which time it can be scraped off easily without damaging the surface.  Some paints may soften even though they do not blister; some may become rubbery, and some may require higher heat. When working with several layers of paint, it speeds up the scraping process to heat the surface thoroughly, all the way to the wood.  Then all the layers can be scraped at one time. A soft wire brush may be the best tool to use for very intricate surfaces.  Mineral paints and finishes, such as cement paint and porcelain, do not soften with heat, so using a heating tool will not work for paint removal. The best method of paint removal Move the 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.
  • 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.

    wagner_furno_750_lcd_stripping_paint_heat_gun.png

 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 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 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 fire extinguisher (suitable against class A, B and C type fires) within reach.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

To reduce the risks of fire or explosion, electrical shock and the injury to persons, read and understand all instructions included in this manual.  Be familiar with the controls and proper usage of the equipment.

WARNING: Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

HAZARD:  POISON

  • Extreme care should be taken when stripping paint.  The peelings, residue and vapors of paint may contain lead, which is poisonous.  
  • Any paint applied to homes before 1950 is likely to contain lead.  
  • Any paint manufactured before 1977 may contain lead.  
  • Once the paint is deposited on surfaces, hand-to-mouth contact can result in the ingestion of lead.  Exposure to even low levels of lead can cause irreversible brain and nervous system damage.  
  • Young and unborn children are particularly vulnerable to lead poisoning.
  • Before beginning any paint removal process you should determine whether the paint you are removing contains lead. This can be done by your local health department  or by a professional who uses a paint analyzer to check the lead content of the paint to be removed.  Lead-based paint should only be removed by a professional and should not be removed using a heat gun.

PREVENTION

Move the work piece outdoors.  If this is not possible, keep the work area well ventilated.  Open the windows and put an exhaust fan in one of them.  Be sure the fan is moving the air from inside to outside.

  • Remove or cover any carpets, rugs, furniture, clothing, cooking utensils and air ducts. 
  • Place drop cloths in the work area to catch any paint chips or peelings.  Wear protective clothing such as extra work shirts, overalls and hats.
  • Work in one room at a time.  Furnishings should be removed or placed in the center of the room and covered.  Work areas should be sealed off from the rest of the dwelling by sealing doorways with drop cloths.
  • Children, pregnant or potentially pregnant women and nursing mothers should not be present in the work area until the work is done and all cleanup is complete.
  • Wear a dust respirator mask of a dual filter respirator mask for dust and fumes which has been approved by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) the National Institute of Safety and Health (NIOSH), or the United States Bureau of Mines. These masks and replaceable filters are readily available at major hardware stores.  Be sure that the mask fits properly.  Beards and facial hair may keep masks from sealing properly.  Change the filters often.  Disposable paper masks are not adequate.
  • Use caution when operating the heat gun.  Keep the heat gun moving as excessive heat will generate fumes which can be inhaled by the operator.
  • Keep food and drink out of the work area.  Wash  hands, arms and face and rinse mouth before eating or drinking.  Do not smoke or chew gum or tobacco in the work area.
  • Clean up all removed paint and dust by wet mopping the floors. Use a wet cloth to clean all walls, sills and any other surface where paint dust is clinging.  Do not sweep, dry dust or vacuum.  Use a high phosphate detergent of trisodium phosphate (TSP) to wash and mop areas.
  • At the end of each work session, put the paint chips and debris in a double plastic bag, close it with tape or twist ties and dispose of properly.
  • Remove protective clothing and work shoes in the work area to avoid carrying dust into the rest of the building.  Wash work clothes separately.  Wipe shoes off with a wet rag and then wash it with the work clothes.  Wash hair and body thoroughly with soap and water.
