8 USES FOR THIS TOOL you did NOT know about | RV With Tito DIY

[@cirrus820travelers9]

One more tip - toast cheese on top of bowl of French Onion soup. Yup, even uses in kitchen are practical.

[@LeDebutDeLaSuite]

Hahahaha, yes!

64 and still finding things I'm adding to my list of things to make and how to make it.

.....and during a burn ban, you could use it for smore treats.

[@donc47]

I really enjoyed the heat gun tips. I would like to see more videos like this.

[@RVwithTito]

Thanks for letting me know. I'll see what I can do.

[@Tom-In-Ga]

Congratulations on being added to my very short list of YT producers who get a thumbs up before I even start the video. Who'd of thought someone could make a heat gun video both informative and entertaining? Well, Tito can!

[@RVwithTito]

Woo Hoo! Honored to have made the short list :)

[@WhereRV_Eh]

I want to see everything you have to say and show. Your straight forward talk and clear descriptions keep me coming back for more. Thank you!

[@RVwithTito]

Well maybe not everything :) Thanks so much for the feedback!

[@paulbenoit9431]

yes, I'd love to see more tool tip videos! Thanks

[@RVwithTito]

Good to know. Thx.

[@errolrelaxtime]

I dont't usually make comments, I just could not resist. Man you're so down to earth I love you. I love that you did not EDIT out the 12:47 where you held the hot nut and it scorched you. We all do that by mistake...🥰😛😃😄 Learnt a lot from this video. Thanks.

[@jnj2673]

What a great video! Thanks for taking the time to make. it. My sweetheart would've loved this, especially the loosing of bolts. I would've never thought of crayon working like that ... Amazing! God Bless, Jul

[@ptcclatlptcclatl1683]

A heat gun is also good when applying VHB and other tapes. Warm it up, roll it and it sticks much better with no air bubbles.

[@RVwithTito]

Huh. Thanks for that one. I'll have to try that.

[@nortonknows]

Excellent video, I have only ever used my heat gun for wiring, never even thought about those other uses.

[@RVwithTito]

Heat fixes lots of things :)

[@13yearsaprepperr.jtilbury.51]

I have my heat gun handy in the workshop for warming my hands , My workshop is to big for a heater 3000 sq metres but every now and then a blast with the gun ,, warm as toast , Great vid Brian Rob NSW Australia

[@TomSpurlock]

Good tips Tito. I have a similar Harbor Freight heat gun, but I often forget I have it. My bad. But I just used it the other day to remove a label. I hate Home Depot bar code labels on their hardwoods, but heat gun works good on them.

[@RVwithTito]

I agree. Some of those labels on wood are a pain to remove. You have to sand them off.

[@tedsamuels3203]

This video was very helpful THANKS 😊

[@noneofyourbusiness4159]

You're my favorite content creator I didn't really grow up around any adults who used tools and my parents never really maintenanced anything themselves. Now as an adult I'm wanting to do things myself but I'm finding that I know nothing about how to do things on my own. I can't afford to hire someone to do things for me so I've been so overwhelmed with how ignorant I am to repair and maintenance and how things function. Your channel has helped me not feel so hopless I'm always learning things from you and smiling at your commentary. I'm so grateful for your videos, thank you 🙏

[@RVwithTito]

You are very welcome. You made my day. I'm glad to help you build your DIY chops. Cheers! Brian

[@exrhodie1234]

Wow, I've owned a heat gun for years and never thought of removing labels with it! Great video as always thanks Brian.

I have a couple of heat guns but I've only used them for heat shrink tubing. Glad I came across your video because I never thought of using them for anything else.

[@helm311]

The attachment you showed on the heat gun that directs the air upwards is the attachment that can be used to heat up tubing or shrink evenly all sides including the bottom without having to twist The Wire.

[@RVwithTito]

Oh right 🤪 I rarely use those since I just grab it and plug it in.

Also good for making those hard to get PVC pipe sizes for shop dust collection systems. Just cut a wooden mold or form to the size you want, heat the PVC pipe and put it on the mold or form and let it cool.

[@RVwithTito]

Excellent. Yes.

[@catw6274]

So very informative!! Thanks Tito!

[@RVwithTito]

My pleasure!

[@AmericanWanderers]

That was some uses that have never occurred to me, good episode. My heat gun more of the minimal variety tho with just 750 and 1500W and no nifty attachments but it will get by. They are also good to defrost your RV fridge coils.

[@RVwithTito]

Yes. I beverage someone else mentioned defrosting also.

[@wesleywesley3012]

Brian , I so love seeing your videos . The install videos and how too's are always informative. Thank you for your contributions. You have taught me much. The recent response to my message on my challenges with my NEW Class C were awesome. I added sway bars and got some SUMO springs and my RV handles better , i have not finished with my suspensions needs yet but working on it. Next to add an inverter and Solar. You inspire me , Thanks Again

[@raymondschneider5217]

Wow, Brian, I'd never considered putting a heat gun (like yours) in my toolbox; think that's gonna be changing soon! Great tips; would love seeing more in the future (other similar tool uses, as well). Thanks for sharing. Y'all Be Safe!

[@eddiehenrard5251]

Twenty years ago I started roasting 400g batches of coffee using the “HGDB” (heat gun dog bowl) method, and am still roasting coffee (2.5kg batches) here in NZ(using a larger hot air roaster). Now I have more uses for the HG!

[@perinblanchard6747]

While there is no real substitute for a full size heat gun (and I have a couple of differently-sized units for home use) I find in my space-limited RV toolkit that I prefer a butane-powered "heat tool". It can be used as a small heat gun (and actually works better for small wire heatshrink) and it has soldering tips. There are a number of such devices available; I personally have a Portasol Super Pro.

[@swsunsetseeker7285]

Great tips, Mr. Brian Tito McGyver!

[@64maxpower]

Love the crayon trick. Yes I'd like anything you want to share. Tools,RV or life advice. I was thinking paste wax would work well too

I use my heat gun to remove the badges off my car and truck, I like a clean look and easy to wax without the emblems. in my younger days we had to fill the holes but now it is easy with a heat gun

[@RVwithTito]

Nice. A bit of heat does the trick.

[@AWBuilder]

It has some uses for spray painting or applying body filler such as warming up the surface and drying it in cold conditions before applying the paint/filler. Also, if you spray clear coat in humid conditions it can dry in a cloudy state which can be rectified by blowing over the area with a heat gun the next day before it is fully cured.

[@RVwithTito]

Thanks. Yes...and revenge bubbles from epoxy too.

[@neilrankin9945]

I love my heat gun as well; I agree it is an excellent bolt loosening tool. I also use it for defrosting my RV fridge. I can defrost the entire fridge in less than 10 minutes then start using it again. Just be very careful to keep the gun moving at a distance ( >12" from surface). Regarding other tool videos, I would love to see your collection of multimeters. Pros and cons of having multiple multimeters.(ie clamp and wire probe type)

Didn't think that was possible 😀

[@4x4-RV]

Hi Brian. Great video. Something I have found with my heat gun is it helps stuck bolts to combine the heat with penetrating oil or spray. Also, if you know that a bolt is set with thread locker, heat can help soften the lock-tite. Then apply firm and steady pressure with the correct tool. It has worked for me every time. Please keep the great content coming. 👍

[@RVwithTito]

Thanks for the advice. Much appreciated.

[@jacksummers1736]

The curved adapter tip for the heat gun is used for heat shrink tubing to heat it uniformly around. Also you left out the electrical crimp connectors with heat shrink insulation.

[@RVwithTito]

Ah yes. I forgot about those butt splices. I do use it for those alot.

[@grecopena]

Great ideas Tito! Thanks!👍😀

[@RVwithTito]

No problem 👍

[@sazennonumber]

Awesome, thank you! Wonder if you could use the heat gun to soften the wood filling crayon... Probably can. I was literally yelling at the computer screen: 'Don't touch that hot bolt, Brian!!!!' He did. Anyhoo, such a great, clear presentation.

Shining shoes. Apply the polish, low heat to slightly melt the polish, cool and begin polishing. Or if you want to strip a pair of boots and begin again.
