    You know, companies hate honest consumers, but I love you guys, because you say it as it is.
    " The same air comes out of these things "
    Thank you for your honesty.

    That red one is made for car wrapping. It measures the temperature on the film for post heating to get the memory out from the PVC, and the optimum distance for post heating is when the 2 dots connect.
    I wrap cars, and I use steinel with wheel temperature control. It's super fast to use, I hate those more expensive ones, which have the buttons for the heat control. Very slow to use, and you have to keep your eye one the screen to know how much heat it's giving. The wheel thing is perfect for changing the temperature.
    I also have a device which can be plugged to the top of the heat gun for post heating temperature measurement. It has multiple settings for different things. Steinel is THE heatgun for me.
    I understand your point of view 100% bc you focus on window tinting :)

    Makita makes the most durable heat gun in my experience. I'm trying out Milwaukie guns now and they seem pretty tough as well. They make one for $80 that seems like a winner.

    I only use Steinel, because here in Germany Steinel is "the" Brand. And the Steinel with the new Heat Control is for Wrapper perfect for post heating. But 500 Dollar for a Gun is crazy.

      I've got nothing against the quality but the price is high, they market it as if it was produced in Germany and for that high price there aren't even tips or a case included.

    The disposable guns are exactly that. If you're doing a long job where you're constantly running them and not letting them cool off, they're going to end up in the trash, and you're going to do an emergent run to Harbor Freight for another. However, you're not going to feel bad if they die.

    Well, the simplicity sounds great. However, this applies only to very experienced wrappers. Those that just started are better off with accurate temp controls, so they don't have to worry about destroying the element/material and focus on quality work instead.

    The major cost differences are accurate temperature control and durability. Personally I prefer Bosch or Makita.

    The $20 Wagner heat guns die after about 6 months of daily use. I stopped using them though because the second one I owned almost caught on fire even though it wasn't turned on.

      zoki kostadinov It will work just fine for a small job like that. But for a professional tinter we use heat guns every day all day so the Wagner is not a good choice.

  • @alotharian

    I would have loved to get info about the two most important specs. the max. temperature and the airflow. Beside the quality these can justify price difference. Good video though.

    • @onpsxmember
      @onpsxmember 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      A lot of the cheap ones don't reach the temperatures they sell it for.
      Some of the cheaper ones advertise up to 650°C and all you get is maybe 350°C.
      But that's just one of many. Lots of those come from the same factory, often just different colours of the housing but the same shit.

    Thanks for the review, but for what most of us need it for, a $50-100 gun is plenty. Again for what most of us, the average person or mechanic need it for.

    I can justify a 10.00 heat gun over a 500.00 heat gun. does it not need me to hold it, aim it. now that would be the killer app of heat guns.
