BLACK+DECKER Heat Gun for Crafts, Corded, Dual Heat Settings up to 1000 Degrees, 1350 Watt (HG1300)

Heat Gun has worked perfectly. Great quality at a fair price

I've used Black and Decker products for multiple years and I'm rarely disappointed. This came in right on time to have on hand just in case I needed it for some work I was doing on my truck; I needed to switch my fog lights and the housing from a chrome end cap to a plastic one. Turns out I didn't really need it, but I did use this on another section to try and fix a panel gap somewhere. It worked well... for someone that's had no prior experience with a heating gun. Man, careful, man... this thing gets super-hot! I read reviews on here prior and noticed where some people were having issues operating the switch (to choose their level of desired heating power); luckily, I didn't have that problem, as the cover is made of flexible silicone or plastic. It worked as advertised. I even used it to dry a portion of my faux suede couch after cleaning it with a lightly wet rag (soap and bleach, etc). I did make sure to rotate the heat gun in a swirling fashion to avoid keeping it focused on one area for too long, as it did begin to incinerate said area (LOL!). The cord could be longer, though. I found that quite annoying at a certain point. The image displayed on Amazon is a bit deceiving... the switch cover is not there. But as long as it works, I guess that's what matters the most. DO use the stand to allow it to cool down. DO NOT use your hand to test it (by directly touching it) to see if it's cooled down. I checked out a few reviews on here, and one of them got a thumbs-up for helping me know to NOT touch that metal part. It get freakishly hot... it even smokes a little bit after you turn it off, depending on how long you've left it on. It melted right through the paint on my bumper end caps! =( Well, no one will be noticing that anytime soon. 5 Stars. (= Hope this helps you in making your purchase. Take care and have a great day!

Gun is heavy duty, well made, it was nice to have the different settings for the project I was using it for working with the Epoxy, no bubbles and did not cause any waves as long as you hold it the right amount of inches away from the project. Very easy to work with.

Works well as designed. The switch is covered by a protective cover that is fairly stiff. I am hoping it will free up over time, or I will cut it off.

Came in excellent condition and works great.

I purchased this after having used a lot of paint stripper to strip the paint off my old (1888) moulding in my house. The original paint was still on there and I had to do all the moulding for the house including door, window and baseboard. Also did a few doors as well. I have saved A LOT of money on paint stripper and this works as well or better with no harsh chemicals. I have used the heck out of this and it is still going strong. You will probably find other uses for it as well if you have one. With the old woodwork that I used it for, the old original oil based (full of lead) paint was on there, plus a couple newer layers. Once heated, the old layers bubbled up and were very easy to scrape off. Yes, it is a gooey mess, but it goes fairly quickly and gets about 90% of the old paint off. Then I come back and use some paint stripper to clean up any left over residue, and it works great! I will say, I have had limited experience with latex paint removal, and so far it seems to be a little more difficult to remove, but that could just be because it is newer paint. I was lucky and had most of the moulding removed and could strip it outdoors. There is of course an unpleasant odor that comes with heating up old paint, but being outdoors it wasn't much of an issue. I did have to strip 2 pieces of moulding indoors because I couldn't remove them from where they were installed. If you have to do that, I recommend having the windows open, because the smell is pretty bad. But barring that, you could definitely use this on woodwork without removing it. BTW, this old trim I used this on has some pretty fine detail on it and this worked well for that part as well. I used a flat metal putty knife to scrape the loosened paint and had very little damage to the wood underneath. There were a few spots I had to use wood putty on to repair after putty knife damage, but it was minimal. I wouldn't use a plastic scraper anyway, because I'm pretty sure it would just melt. Getting the metal scraper hot as you work actually helps it to loosen the paint as you go. Overall, this seems to be a good product that has worked well for me for a good price.

Surprising heat at an impressive value. With this in my arsenal, surely I'll be able to defeat my archenemies from the Arctic circle!

Love this tool, one of the most used tools in my studio. I made the mistake of donating the one that I had purchased 25 years ago, while donating the many tools that I didn't use, in favor of a more compact heat gun. I soon found that the one that I kept just couldn't do the jobs I needed it for in my studio, so I purchased it again. Never shall we part!

今まで使っていた同メーカーのヒートガンのスイッチが接触不良で動いたり動かなかったりと動作不良になったためにこちらを買い替えました。 前のより軽くなり、スイッチもカバーが付いて汚れなくなっています。 熱量は2段階あってこれも良いかと思います。

I recently picked up the BLACK+DECKER Heat Gun (HG1300), and it has been amazing for speeding up my car painting process. I used it for drying paint and it cut down the time I needed between multiple base coat layers—which was a total lifesaver for my DIY car build! Dual Temperature Settings for Flexibility With the dual temperature settings, I was able to easily adjust the heat for different layers of paint. The low setting worked perfectly for drying the first coat, while the high setting helped me speed up the drying on the final layers, without damaging the paint. Efficient & Easy to Use The heat gun was super easy to handle and didn’t feel heavy during long sessions. It heated up quickly and provided consistent heat for an even drying process. It also helped reduce paint streaking and ensured I could move onto the next layer quickly, keeping my project on track. If you’re looking for a reliable heat gun for drying paint or any car DIY projects, this is a must-have tool. It really helped me save time and get professional-quality results. Would highly recommend it!

Muy buena, tiene dos niveles de temperatura y calienta muy bien, yo la utilizo para pegar cubre canto en la madera, se me hiso más práctico que con la plancha, solo hay que utilizar guantes para no quemarse.

J’ai acheté ce pistolet thermique HG1300 pour décaper de la vieille peinture sur un meuble en bois et je suis agréablement surpris par son efficacité. ✅ Les points forts : Double température pratique : Le réglage à deux niveaux de chaleur est vraiment utile. J’ai utilisé la température basse pour des surfaces plus fragiles et la haute pour enlever la peinture plus résistante, ça fonctionne parfaitement. Montée rapide en chaleur : L’appareil chauffe en quelques secondes, on peut commencer à travailler presque immédiatement. Compact et léger : La prise en main est bonne, même pour de longues sessions. Le design est simple, mais bien pensé. Stable en position verticale : Le support permet de poser le pistolet à la verticale en toute sécurité pendant qu’il refroidit, c’est un vrai plus.

Muy buen producto a un muy buen precio $361 Cumple con lo requerido, no creo pueda aguantar horas de funcionamiento continuo, hay que cuidar eso
