dont bother with a heat gun you will just make a mess get a little wire brush that fits in to a drill and a way you go it flicks it at you put you can do one arch in about half an hour :lol:

well thats one arch donehttp://img37.echo.cx/img37/7813/novaconversion9uy.th.jpg (http://img37.echo.cx/my.php?image=novaconversion9uy.jpg)
looking spotless there dave
I used a similar thing Dave, but mine was on a grinder, just like a wire brush, takes it straight off

thats the one chris the only thing is you end up picking the stuff out of your ears and eyes days after :lol:
i also used the one that attaches to the grinder.
but it fell apart, and trust me. the little bristles got everywhere.
i am still finding them in my overalls now
