Cleaning up string with a heat gun?
I've run black PETG parts over a lighter to clean up string with great success. I've also sooted PLA parts doing that. Question is what would happen if I tried running Silk PLA parts under a heat gun? It was a 14 hour print so I'm not eager to experiment and screw it up.

Just use a light touch. Practice on a few smaller parts to get used to it. I use a heat gun with PLA and PETG without any problems.
