We ALL have to die sometime. Just do it and see what happens.@45WinMag , If I paint furniture with Duracoat is it safe to cure in the oven? I don't want repercussions to the food or from the old lady!
LOL! I have a bad feeling it would be slow and painful! Her kitchen is a sacred place!We ALL have to die sometime. Just do it and see what happens.![]()
How many weeks will she be out of the house before she comes back?@45WinMag , If I paint furniture with Duracoat is it safe to cure in the oven? I don't want repercussions to the food or from the old lady!
LOL! She comes back every day! Thanks for the PDF! Haven't thought about MEK for a while!How many weeks will she be out of the house before she comes back?
I spray-painted with Krylon Fusion in my OPEN garage (to stay out of the wind). Took the item outside to dry for a couple hours, then brought it in to dry.
My wife was gone for four days over Thanksgiving.
She came home four days after my paint job. Walked in the front door... one of the first things she said..... have you been painting?
That's without touching her oven. I'd sooner rent an extended stay suite under an assumed name, and use their oven, before I'd touch my wife's oven.![]()
Unknown. Hit up the neighbors? "Hey, can I borrow your stove for a bit?"How long does it need to bake? Can you heat up a BBQ grill, shut it off, then toss in the part and let the residual heat do the job?
Lauer's DuraCoat is a two-part that doesn't need to be baked. I have to bake Norrell's. A grill doesn't really work for Norrell's because you have to use exact temperatures. The oven temperature setting isn't even accurate enough, I have to use a digital thermometer. Baking too low doesn't activate the curing process, and baking too high or too long alters the color.@45WinMag , If I paint furniture with Duracoat is it safe to cure in the oven?

Thanks! I'll weigh my options as it gets closer.Lauer's DuraCoat is a two-part that doesn't need to be baked. I have to bake Norrell's.

I only use the oven in the kitchen if I have a full day before the wife returns, and even then I have all the windows open and fans moving air. She still notices.
The process is food safe, but not wife safe.
Get a used electric smoker. You should be able to fit an entire long gun in there, disassembled.@45WinMag , If I paint furniture with Duracoat is it safe to cure in the oven? I don't want repercussions to the food or from the old lady!
I'd been reading a couple of sources and that was what I'd gotten out of it. Figured I'd ask the people that had done it!Get a used electric smoker. You should be able to fit an entire long gun in there, disassembled.
I thought Duracoat was air-dried overnight, though? Cerekote needs an oven.
OTHER FORUM!?I bought the same one for my M&P.
It will be here Thursday.
On another forum, I've been warned I should have paid the extra $20 for a CMC (now out of stock).
Oh well... we'll see how it goes.
