| Just a note from someone who spent 10 years in the automotive paint business.........
Baking any kind of paint that comes out of a spray can, in hopes that it will increase durability or adhesion, is a waste of time.......the ONLY thing baking will do is make it dry faster......paint that comes out of a spray can relies on a mechanical bond in order to stick......heat only causes the solvents to evaporate quicker...... |

| I always felt that paint adhered better if the metal was warm, around 150 degrees. I don't feel there is any need for an oven per se.
Leftists are intellectually vacant, but there is no greater pleasure than tormenting the irrational.
