I have seen items like this and wondered if they really worked. I have had not so good experiences with using a heat gun on low and scraping. Did it scratch the surface you were working on?

hi hooked,, No scratches ,it was getting dark and cooler ,, i pluged it in and slowlly took off about 10' of stripping most of it came off clean a few spots there was a little adhesive left on that i took of with starting fluid but no scratches,,, out of all the gum/glue removers on the market a little starting fluid on a rag works great the weather is turning colder so i hope i can get a few days of warm weather to finish

Sounds great. I need to remove the decals off the boat I just bought and this looks like just the right tool!

Thanks!
