Can a person use a heat gun for heat in the final step or to heat the tool???

Some sat they use a curling stick I personally used the Iron like the instructions recommended you should practice first on a different area. You might have to try it a few times but the iron and the heating stick that comes with the kit worked fine for me. Hope this helps you.

Meh. I found the optimum temperature to cure this - in a reasonable time - very warm. The kind of very warm where you can still keep your fingers on it without too much discomfort. If it's too hot to keep your finger on for more than 3 seconds, your gonna melt the surrounding material. If you can control the heat gun to maintain that level of heat over a 15 to 20 minute period, then you're good. Patience is the key. The heat transfer tool?? A joke. You'd be there for a good 2 hours with it.

hi i have to agree with vid pro. i do not believe you have ruined it at all. i would get the gun hot again and push more sticks of glue through too. even if you used mini sticks keep pushing thru even if you used a wooden skewer to help push it thru [ never use metal,] only a wood skewer, just to push it as soon as you see the glue come through, try to get all the glue mini sticks out that way.might as well get the right sized glue sticks cos this will be a repeat of the same ole problem you are having now if you don't. the best thing is just use the right size sticks to push out the mini sticks of glue out, then you can bypass wood skewer. that is what i would do. you should really use the mini glue sticks for a smaller gun cos the chamber is made for the mini sticks that is why it is difficult to get the glue flow out with this gun. rest assured i use this glue gun profesionally i own 2 i love this gun. this gun is HOT please make sure to have ice water near you can dunk a finger in, helps to cool the glue so the burn isn't so bad. live and learn please be careful. enjoy that gun hope this helps pammypurple

Yes, I heated mine with a hair dryer. You can also use a heat gun if you have one.

no, its impossible to install without tools like heat gun, and other things, really this product its only for repair business people

No you cant warm it in the mirowave .... it will spark cause of the metal can .... and no you cant use stips cause this type of wax is hard ..... and it should be easy to pull off ....u always have to leave a corner lifted to be able to pull off ...

You could but you need to watch your contact time because aluminum will heat up quickly. And this tool has a lot of RPM's

Yes. It harder to get started and drill strait but not impossible use a center punch to start the drill and watch closely to make sure its drilling strait. use lots of penetrating oil. if it doesn't back out with the extractor use heat. Then let it completely cool down again.

You shouldn't have to heat this at all; in fact, I would never recommend it. The wax should have been the consistency of fresh shoe polish. You should never have to do more than rub an applicator across it to get a nice, smooth paste. You seem to have received old stock; notify Amazon and the seller, and see what they can do about it. This stuff is wonderful to work with and a snap to use. You just didn't get what you paid for.

You would have to purchase a separate chiller unit, as well as a water cooled torch. You can weld metal as thick as you wish, or have patience for.

Yes, you puncture it. Be careful if it is warm, though, and use a screwdriver and hammer or something akin to that. Hold it away as it may be under pressure.

It's one layer stretch wrap as would be used for palletized freight. I don't think it would work with a heat gun.

You can do either method but I just use it as a weight and flip. Heating it by itself can drip grease (from seasoning cast iron) onto the burner and I don't want the mess. The handle gets very hot so be sure to use an oven mitt...ove gloves are great!!!

No, you have to run it with a soldering tip. It i awesome for a soldering iron though. I don't recommend a butane torch if you plan on using it for plumbing or anything that requires a lot of heat, they usually won't get that hot.

No, you can't, if you want to use it as a heat blower you need a attachment (Iso-Tip #7992-003)

You would have to be very careful. In "lighter" mode, it's just like any butane lighter, but in "torch" mode, it's an intense, focused jet that will burn through things and melt solder. If you don't need it to be portable, I recommend an electric heat gun. I use this one for heat-shrink tubing: 1 X ECG HG-300D Mini Heat Gun

I has a scrapping blade that comes with it. But I think a heat gun and a putty knife would work better.

No problem here. Start in low, one started set to desired heat. Seems to work well enough to set "heat shrink" tubing, my most common use. Have also used to strip paint from small parts.
