Here's my idea: I want to disassemble my 1969 Bronco and powder coat the hood, fenders, windshield frame, doors and tailgate now that my oven is large enough to handle these parts. The problem is that there are still a few parts that cannot be removed from the truck like both rear quarter panels. I don't have the money for one of the nice IR lamps yet and need ideas on how to cure the powder on these 2 panels. Any ideas? Would a heat gun work well enough for this? Seems like it would produce an uneven cure on such a large panel. I'm open to any ideas. I don't want to bring the tub to a shop and pay someone else to use their oven because I want to leave the tub on the frame with all wiring, etc. intact. Anyone done this before?

auto maker's have been powder coat auto's for year's .. i have used a heatgun on valve cover's but i would not use one to cure that much powder .. bmw /gm got a huge booth they coat it and run it in this booth with ir light's everywhere .. some firetruck companies do the frame's this way .. i would remove all the wiring on the tub before placing it in that much heat ...

I'll have to look into the propane IR light way of curing. My oven is plenty large enough for all the body panels, just not the rear quarters since they are welded to the tub...I'll post pictures of it when I finish. Thanks for the responses guys.
