  Hi,
 
 Switch to the yellow bottles which hold MAPP gas. It will heat to a higher 
temperature. Available at Home Depot, Wal-Mart, probably most auto parts 
stores, etc. I just bought two and I think they were about 7 or 8 dollars each.

 I think it's fibreglass that's used in those, yes they're well worth the 
price. 
 
 I've had good luck with the dremel method in the past so that's what I'll do 
this time as well. You just can't get enough heat out of those little blue 
propane bottles. 
 
 Thanks all
