"You need to buy this special heater pad to break the screen adhesive!"

No, I think you will find that in fact I don't.

Doesn't that require a much higher temperature than most beds would be able to safely achieve.

I had to take the screen off of a Pixel not terribly long ago to replace the battery. I used a heat gun and I remember it requiring a temperature of like... 240C° or some such? And when I'm printing PLA, my printer bed only gets to 60C°. (Not saying it couldn't go higher, but 240C° seems way higher than 60C°.)

Nah 85/90 degrees is perfect for the job. Much better and more uniform than a heatgun, let alone a hairdryer
