becky0404 Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 What do you all use for a "heat gun"?I've been using a hair dryer, but it takes so long with palm wax to smooth out the relief holes! What are some of my other options? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candlesprite7 Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 I use an embossing gun from Michaels, You can get then at most any craft store. Works like a charm! and if your craft store gives out weekly 40 - 50% off coupons much the better since you can get it cheaper! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luci Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 I use a Milwaukee heat gun and couldn't do without it. I got it at Walmart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lindanelson Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 I have a wagoner heat gun from Sears. Works alot better than a hair dryer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
islandgirl Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 1200W Wagner from Walmart.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debscent Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 I used the embossing heat tool from Michael's for awhile and it worked fine, then got one from Harbor Freight for like $5.00 on sale. Be careful they get HOT!!! (You should see the scar on my arm from where the mouth of the gun, lightly touched me). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus Daniel Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 I purchased mine from Wal-Mart also. When I have to defrost my freezer, I use my heat gun!!! Works great:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CareBear Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Some brand from Target - they are in the hardware area sold as paint-removing tools. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
everglowcandlesandgifts Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Thanks for the great ideas on this. I've been wondering about which one to get as well. Lots of choices! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
