Do not heat the same area for more than 15 seconds

Do not heat the same area for more than 15 seconds, it might burn the paint.

As soon as the coating starts to bubble, scrape it with the putty knife or scraping kit

Start with the edges and go toward the center of the door.

Choose an orbital sander to sand the center of the door
