Re: VHT Flameproof coating - cure time?
well wtf am i gonna do then. i'm not taking the paint back, that's like a 20 minute drive.
how is the paint supposed to cure on the head/tranny/intake manifold by idling the car for 20 minutes and going for a drive? it says this about "on the car curing"
wtf would you do?
my best bet as of yet is heatgun for 20 minutes on highest temp. if the heatgun will light grass on fire, it will cure paint. even if the paint wants 650 degrees.
