Speedheater Cobra Infrared Paint Remover
Description
The next-generation of infrared paint removers, the Speedheater Cobra is a revolutionary tool with many new innovations that make infrared paint removal even faster, easier, more ergonomic, more efficient, and environmentally friendly.
The Speedheater Cobra uses infrared heat to soften paint in just 1 to 3 seconds. The process breaks the bond between multiple coats of old paint and the underlying surface below, but without creating dangerous lead fumes from old paint.
With easy handling and heat control, the IR light can be held closer or farther from the surface to control the heating process and reduce the risk of damaging the wood. The paint then begins to bubble in a few seconds when the light is held close to the surface.
The flexible, articulating head of the versatile Speedheater Cobra allows the tool to work easily on many different, hard-to-reach surfaces, including wood and concrete, and it can quickly soften old paint, putty, varnish, and glue, so that it can be scraped away easily. It is also effective at scraping away paint from angled and carved surfaces.

Speedheater Cobra Infrared Paint Remover
Sale price$609.00
J
I am absolutely amazed at how well the Speedheater Infrared Cobra works. We are tackling a staircase in a house built in 1875 that had literally years and years of thick, heavy paint layers caked onto it. I was dreading the job, but the Cobra bubbled up decades of old paint in a matter of seconds, making it incredibly easy to scrape away right down to the bare wood without damaging the original details.
I also cannot recommend the distributor, Sage Restoration, highly enough. Their customer service is exceptional, and they made the entire purchasing process seamless. If you are dealing with a historic home restoration or stubborn layers of old paint, do yourself a favor and get this tool. It is worth every single penny!
K
It is a fantastic tool! I should have bought one sooner!
P
This product has been a game changer! The paint just melts like butter in seconds and is easily removed.
G
Stripping paint off a 1890 house with who knows how many layers of enamel paint. The Cobra unit works! The infrared seems to penetrate all layers, softening them come off in one peel. The smaller head of the Cobra unit allows better control in tight areas.
B
The paint removal tool works like I had expected.
B
It really does work as advertised - the paint "boils" and then easily scrapes off. I would just advise anyone trying it for the first time to test it on a non-important piece, as it will burn the wood if it is held there too long.
A
melts paint very quickly but have to be careful not to burn wood. I find it difficult to believe that no lead fumes are produced since lead paint is being heated and , in some cases burned during the removal process
A
Excellent at removing old paint especially in tight areas. We used it on our exterior railings, trim and hard to reach areas of our 120 year old home
J
Fast paint removal. Works great on doors and trim. Looking forward to much faster removal on my windows. Gloves and caution are required.
J
I've used every imaginable tool for removing paint: scraping, sanding, grinding, various chemicals, heat guns...and none of them are as good as the Speedheater. Highly recommended!
