Default dry coat on bottom

sup guys new here..


I am coating in a convetional oven that only the top elemnet works... the bottom one isnt working even on broil..... (lookin for a new oven right now)

I have sprayed alot of parts such as grab bars for 4wheelers... the upper part closest to the element that works is awsome,perectly shiny and what not.... the underside looks as if it didnt get enought heat.. (kinda dry,texture look to it) if i got an oven that BOTH elements worked would this get rid of that dry look?

thanks

More then likely.
Can you move the good element to the bottom?

you should be able to swap the elements. they are usually only held in by 2 screws.

if i'm not mistaken, and i often am!, the bottom element should work on bake and the top on broil (or is it both on broil)?

First try to switch the leads and see if the bottom one works.
If it does, splice them together.
