Default VHT Clear Coat Question
My question doesn't really have anything to do with actually building an oven, just using one...
I bought a rattle can of VHT Clear Coat (Silica-Ceramic Coating) to coat the exhaust pipe on my vintage motocross bike and the directions say to cure it in an oven at 250°, 400° and then 600°. Can I use my gas kitchen oven (the same one I'll be cooking dinner in later) and if so, do I have to suspend the pipe in the oven or can it rest on the wire rack? Also, the directions say to apply several thin coats...do I need to cure after each thin coat or after the final coat? Lastly, will I be eating Clear Coat-flavored turkey on Thanksgiving?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Scott

NNNOOOOOO dont use your kitchen oven. Yes hang the part unless you want lines on it. Bake it after all the coats are on it.
