Value of iOpener for battery adhesive?

crwdns2934249:0crwdne2934249:0:

I've replaced dozens of batteries in Retina MacBook Pros & the newer models that all have adhesive holding them in. To this point, I've used iFixit's solution (acetone right?) with decent results, but it's messy & annoying.

If I were to buy and use an iOpener on the palmrest area, would that actually be adequate to help soften the adhesive?

Is a heatgun realistic to use? I'd be concerned about damaging the trackpad in the process.
