Painting fibreglass body
edsco - 9/6/11 at 03:53 PM

Does anyone know if baking fibreglass body panels will warp them and cause lasting damage or do you simply have to let it all air dry naturally?

i warm all my panels up with my patio heater before i spray them just to help them go off.

it shouldnt warp them heating them i have 2 2200 watt patio heaters in front of the panels to warm them in the winter before primering and never had any issues.

Be careful if you bake them as they can distort unless supported, best to turn oven off then leave panels in the oven as it cools over night.
