Re: M_Boats: varnish removal

I've done both, but I've not repeated the toxic goop alternative since having used a heat gun. It's the only way to go. t On Sun, Jul 13, 2008 at 3:21 PM, Tom Jenkins <tjenk@gte.net> wrote:

Hello all,

I have always used nasty chemical strippers to remove heavy accumulations of varnish, but I seem to recall someone in this group saying that heat guns will remove varnish. Elsewhere I have read that heat guns will remove paint, but will only soften varnish and make it gooey. Does anyone out there have personal experience that will solve this quasi-controversy?

Thanks, as always,
