Default Blow torches: are they still used?

Torch and propane is the what the external painters use.


Probably because its more convenient that having long leads trailing
about. Or they're just set in they're ways.


You get a lot more heat and more control from a propane torch than from an
electric heat gun.
They are also safer in the wet.
