Speedheater Systems from Sweden has developed a great range of infrared lamps that makes the process of paint stripping so much quicker, easier and ecologically friendly. The technology that the IR lamps uses is the particular wavelength of infrared light that the lamps emit, which causes the plastic paint to soften up after only 2-3 seconds of exposure to the infrared light, so that the paint can then be easily scrapped off the wood. This marks a real game-changer for the paint stripping process.
