yet another whistler ? so my wonderfully intellegent gf asked yesterday, "has anyone used a heat gun rather than an oven?"
just curious whether anyone had used a heat gun to heat the sealant up rather than using the traditional oven...id feel a lot more comfortable busting out a heat gun rather than sticking my lights in my old, semi-unreliable oven

Yea actually. I didn't want to do the oven thing either...lol. I used a heat gun here at the shop and it worked perfectly. You do still have to get them pretty hot, but they came out perfect, and no cracks or anything. Made me feel alot more comfortable using the heat gun over the oven...
