Infrared heat (radiant heat) for paint removal?
 

The fascia boards on my single story home are in serious need of
paint. They need to be scraped and scraped :-/ In reading I found
out about "Infrared heat (radiant heat) for paint removal".

I found a site where the guy built his own "infrared paint remover".
**

So, are "infrared tubes" and "quartz tubes" one in the same?

Don't know about about your question or that device. I do know that
heat is an effective way to remove paint. I have a heat gun with a
digital readout, allows you to select any temp you want, lots of
control. Link:

Yes. All quartz tubes are infrared heaters, but not all infrared heaters
are quartz tubes. If it glows ed, it will give off infrared. Think SUN.

Am I correct this heater is infrared/quartz tubes?*

I can cannibalize it, if so. I would spend $75.00 and build a one
pound unit.

A real unit cost $400.00 and weighs over four pounds. Online rental
requires a full cost deposit of $400.00, but only $25.00 a day rental;
excluding shipping days.

Scroll up my link a bit. He used three guns at once. After 30 years he
abandoned them for infrared. Click the red house he stripped with
three guns.
