   I've used the Silent Paint Remover for about a year now and it's more than paid for itself. It's pricey ($450), but does a super job of removing paint. I recall the web site is http://www.silentpaintremover.com

   Thanks. I've been to the website, but I like to hear from others who aren't necessarily affiliated with the company.

   Have you tried any of the accessories?

   I forget how but some here have spoken about naking your own for less than half the price of the one youre speaking about.

   You might want to enquire.

   I have just finished  removing 170 years worth of  exterior paint from a massive greek revival  house. That  included 21 fluted pillars, 120 feet  of dental moulding, and enless fancy trim work.  The silent paint remover worked well. I would guess about twice as fast as a regular heat gun, for most of the mouldings. However it could not reach everywhere, the heat gun was a neccesary augmentation. Also it is not easy. Even with excellent moulding scrapers, it is tough physical work. For flat trim and clapboards I used  , a power scraper. That is very fast, probably twic e the speed of the silent paint remover, at least. But again it is tough physical work.
