brendandrage Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Hi all, I was wondering if anyone uses an alcohol burner to heat their jigs? I am currently using a heat gun but find the noise very annoying so am looking for an alternative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattman Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 An alcohol burner is a staple item for me in rod building. I used it for some of my first jigs. I promptly bought a heat gun. While the burner did work. You really need to be careful of the flame. You can scortch your paint before you know it and then there really isn't any fixing it. Certainly works well for heating prior to dipping in powder paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
