Curing simoniz engine enamel

(1/5) > >>

The can says to bake at 220 for 90 minutes to fully cure the paint.  As I don't have access to an old oven, I thought I'd spend some time with a heat gun and infrared thermometer....  anybody have any thoughts?

Don't think you will get the alloy up to temperature with a heat gun.

JustcallmeMrT:
Nuts.

Johnwebley:
I guess just be careful till you can run it ,and let the motor heat cure it,

you will cure it when you ride it  ;)
until i bought my brand new 1200 bandit 2000 i always wondered why i liked brand new bikes ,it was because they had a that lovely smell of the engine paint baking :P
