    X2......My heat gun comes with two diff. setting. Hot (300 ?) and I think around (7oo ?) for the high. I use only the hottest setting for everything from bass jigs to walleye jigs and crappie jigs. Just get use to the number seconds left in the heat. Works great. Have a good day. STEVE

    Thank you for asking this, as I was wondering the same thing. I have spent a few hours today off and on painting jig heads the old fashion way. LOL I am seriously thinking about getting into powder coating. Bobo

    Any cheap heat gun will work. Northern tool, harbor freight companies like that sell them cheap.

    Alcohol Burner bought off ebay for $6 w/free shipping, heats my jigs for painting. Rival toaster oven from WalMart for $20 for curing. Setup works great for me.
