Any torch in the right hands will do the trick

Drama over. All it took was a mild warming over with a cook's crème brûlée torch.

Not only does it help make yummy deserts, but helps unstick stubborn wheel spacers!

Thanks for all your help guys, much appreciated!

I'm not to sure using one of those at the shop would go over to well lol

If you are referring to the temperature sticks, I do not understand.
As an example, if you want the heated product to be 250 degrees F the stick will melt at + or minus one degree of that.

edit- You have never preheated or postheated your welds at the shop?

I work at a dealership. If anything needs to be heated we use a oxy acetylene torch. We rarely see welding in the shop since everything is basically bolt on.

But for general use at home a propane torch does the trick, just takes longer to heat. Used them on seized coilovers to seized tie rods.
