The Sheen X300 Weed gun is the best flame gun for getting rid of weeds in the larger garden.

To use the flame gun you fill the tank with paraffin, open a valve for a few seconds to allow a small amount of paraffin to come out though the coil in the burner and on to the wick, then close the valve. Light the wick and leave to burn for 3-4 mins. What this does is vaporise the paraffin in the coil. The flame gets larger then subsides and starts to roar. At this stage open the valve and pump the tank to 25 Lbs. This sends vaporised paraffin into the flame under pressure, the flame turns intense and they say it is now burning at 2000 degrees Fahrenheit. A quick flash with the flame and the plant is dead, continue to burn the plant to cinder. At first when it starts to roar it can seem a little daunting but once you have started it a few times it is a breeze, incredibly effective and in a lot of ways fun to use.

Eco friendly and organic, no need for any form of pesticides

“The Sheen X300 flame gun is the most effective weed killer you can buy. This flame gun destroys weeds with a searing 2000 degrees Fahrenheit blast which when directed at the base of weeds stops the plants sap rising. Leaving the weeds to dry for a few days, a second gunning incinerates all top growth and weed seeds, leaving a potash rich residue.”

This used to be used 2-3 times a year but hasn’t been used now for the last few months. Worked perfectly last time used and as you can see from the images is still working perfectly but I can only show you images of the first stage to pre-heat the paraffin, the initial light and then the flames getting larger while it heats the paraffin in the coil. Now I am in small garden and only have AstroTurf I couldn’t show you the machine in full mode but there are plenty of videos on line.

If required spares are easily available but the jet and the wick, the main maintenance items, seems to have a lot of life left in them yet. I will drain the tank fully for transport. Instruction leaflet included.

Good used condition, some surface rust but as these images taken today show, works fine and no leaks etc
