You're going to owe Laura a really nice dinner out for using the oven.

hey Buru,
I am sure Steve and Papa are up to the task. If they cant do it talk to Ucla Bruin on myg37 or talk to http://www.lightwurkz.com/ and i am sure they can do painting for you.

She asks each time we have a garage day "are you going to use the oven to bake headlights?"

I didnt have any issues with the paint on mine and we followed your guide Chris.The paint did cure for a few days before baking again so maybe that had something to do with it.
