Can I use any putty scraper bought at Home Depot or other hardware or paint store?
Traditional putty knives are NOT recommended. A high quality pull scraper which is pulled toward you instead of pushed away from you is essential with the Speedheater Infrared (IR) Paint Remover. Heating the paint will soften the paint. It is then up to the quality scraper tool to get the paint off. Most paint on the surface will require a little elbow grease when scraping. Inexpensive scrapers found in many paint stores do not work very well.
