Re: Solar Flat Black issues
oh, yeah, i completely missed the 175 cure temp! i probably read it as 375. how heavy is the part you're coating. cure times (along with the corresponding cure temperatures) are based on when flow out (when powder first melts and looks glossy) begins. so if the cure schedule calls for 12min at 395, it'd take several minutes for flow out and THEN 12 more minutes. if you're coating a heavy steel part, it's gonna take more time to get it up to flow out temp. also, if some portions of the part are heavier than others, the flow out times are going to vary, and maybe this could be contributing to the uneven texture.
