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?
Thanks.

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.
