A Heat Gun

Stop borrowing your wife’s hairdryer when you need a source of hot air. A good heat gun, even though you might not use it a lot, is a lifesaver when you need it.

In a quality heat gun, I look for two things. First, make sure there are multiple heat settings. Second, a built-in stand is a must. Since I use mine mostly on cars, here’s a tip: put your hand on the paint right next to where you plan to apply heat to remove decals: if it’s too hot for you, it’s too hot for the paint.
