+ | Guys have been using the BBQ paint for years with no problems. No curing process is needed. ((IronMick of the XLFORUM http://xlforum.net/forums/showthread.php?p=2521822&highlight=grill#post2521822)) \\ | ||

+ | You can put painted parts in an oven or a BBQ grill and heat to 200° F to cure the paint. ((1976 XL of the XLFORUM http://xlforum.net/forums/showthread.php?p=2521822&highlight=grill#post2521822)) \\ An oven thermometer was installed in the side of the grill below. \\ Propping the lid open kept the heat down. \\ | ||

+ | |||
+ | Don't heat iron heads much more than that though. It could damage the springs. 200°F is plenty hot to cure the paint, but not too hot as to warp the springs. \\ | ||
