Heatgun To Bond Siding
Nec refers you to 250 116 which talks about grounding of nonelectric equipment.
Heatgun to bond siding. Remember it generally takes a few days for adhesive to completely wet out or bond to a substrate. Then heat the veneer with a heat gun and roll the veneer with a laminate roller or even a wall paper roller if the work is small. Roll from the center out each way while applying heat. After it cools the bond is good and will not creep.
Infrared ray tools which operate at a much lower temperature than a heat gun and are very effective in breaking the bond between the paint and the substrate. Use these tools for big projects or house siding that needs all the paint removed. Screws are placed trough the metal siding where it is doubled up on the lower course. It is possible to start a fire with a heat gun but far less chance than if you used a butane torch.
Instead consider a heat gun to be a supplement to manual scraping. This is usually accomplished by running bond wire to a solid ground such as a ground rod or the exterior spigot. Much safer than the traditional butane torch a heat gun has no open flame. Imagine a high quality manual hair dryer then multiply the heat several times more.
These tools are up for the long run times and provide an ergonomic grip for extended use. If you do not have this glue try a package of gelatin in hot water. Use less water than the package says.
