Comments about Milwaukee Milwaukee 8975-6 Heat Gun:
have been using this heat gun, where I work, for almost a year. I have spent about 1000 hours using it to strip paint and it works just like the day I first got it. I have stripped paint that was literally a quarter of an inch thick or more with this heat gun and I had not problem getting the paint hot enough to scrape off. Milwaukee did an excellent job designing this gun. The fan does a good job of blowing the heat out, which I think is one of the most important things to look for in a heat gun, besides the temperature it heats up to.
I recommend this tool to anyone, whether you are a do-it-yourselfer or a full time painter, it is a great heat gun.
