Same here. Done second coats a few mins after the have come out of oven and no problems. Only problems i've had is with translucents going over chrome. They really dont cover well unless the part is hot.

I had a caliper that I did with Chrome and trans purple. The trans purple I did when It was hot came out really dark! I mean really dark. Didnt look good at all. The other that I did with another caliper that was cold came out nice I think. I mean it worked. My only problem is that i need to use that IR temp reader, because I use IR Propane instead of an oven. I need to pay more attention to my times and types of powders to use to I dont over cure epoxys.
