I used a sheet of something, not sure what, to shield the glass from the gun blast. Still requires care, it’s tedious work and your attention slips. The Bahco carbide scrapers are great. Very satisfying. I tend to use a regular scraper first to lift the thick paint off then scrape back with the Bahco.
Oh crap. Sounds like it’ll all need to come off.
Careful of the heat gun and the glass (bitter experience)
Those carbide scrapers are great - the Bahco one I have is a favourite tool. BUT they’re brilliant at smashing glass - I managed to shatter a toughened glass double glazed unit I’d just fitted a while ago by just tapping it wrong.
