Has anyone actually used The Silent Paint Remover? It uses infrared to loosen the paint and putty in windows etc etc. Seems a bit pricey and after going to their website I feel more skeptical and that its just a gimmick. Anyone tried it? I have scores of 322 year old windows to strip down and reglaze. Thanks
Be well
Namaste

whatsa matter? noisy paint remover driving you crazy.?..lol... get some ear muffs...lol
listening for the secret.......searching for the sound...
A painter I know uses an IR bulb in a simple socket with a #10 tin can for the shield. He has a couple of them on adjustable gooseneck stands.
Works well for him.
Now Andy can afford to get his wifes teeth fixed!

Mongo,
where would one get ann IR bulb? Any idea? I just wonderif it really does a good job. I could care less about noise..my hearing is shot anyway by now, its the lead paint I worry about and wonder if it does a better job then a heat gun.

Keeping it under 1100° is what you need for lead, regardles of the heat source..

The guy at the lead seminar said that it was the middle setting for most of them. If I remember right, my Makita came with a sheet of papeer that told the approximate heat for each setting. I'm sure that must vary with the size and length of the extension cord.
Good morning, it's chillly here today!.

My paint remover is anything but silent. She whines bitches and mouns every time I ask her to remove the paint. Now she removes it with a crow bar, Dry wall and all.
