I just checked the wire I got from <http://www.qrpkits.com/magnetwire.html>
 IS heat strip-able.  800F works fine.

The magnet wire that Mouser sells is heat strip-able (Beldsol insulated), but 
not all magnet wire is heat strip-able...The magnet wire RS used to sell was 
not heat strip-able...The insulation on this wire is called Formvar and is 
suited for high temperature applications such as electric motors and power 
transformers...It must be mechanically or chemically stripped...Heat strip-able 
wire would fail under the high heat conditions encountered in some electric 
motors, like in power saws...The commutator connections in these motors are not 
soldered, they are swagged...
