#42112, "Paint baking at home....?"




          

Okay I know that at major shops they will bake your car after it's been painted to cure the paint. If you're painting your interior pieces or what not would it help if you set your oven to 100 or 150 degrees and baked your piece between sections (primer, base, clear)...I was just thinking about that last night.

I belive the bake the paint only to spead up the curing process. Unless you're in a hurry to wax it I don't see a reason for it.

yes the oven is used to help the paint dry so you don't get any dust particles in the paint. as far as waxing i won't do it for at least 3-4 weeks after painting. It takes that long for the paint to fully cure....
