WOW! A heatgun really does wonders removing the epoxy from the frame. Previously I had been using a drill with a wire brush attachment but this is WAY better. Yes, you still have to scrape, but it comes off like warm butter. It takes about 10 seconds with the gun to warm the area sufficiently to start scraping but after it's hot, moving to an adjacent area is very easy. I did also try the propane torch. Having something like that in my hand was too much for my pyromaniac instinct though, and I couldn't help but flame the hell out of the epoxy to the point where it was bubbling black. The heatgun, however, is a perfect restraint and is awesome for removing the epoxy. Incidentally, is it usual to find small light rust spots underneath perfectly good, non-cracked, non- chipped epoxy?
