Jeff:
I have done a fair amount of baking parts--gives a good, hard, and smooth
finish. I bake my parts at 250 degrees for about 30-35 minutes. The sun
does not do that kind of job, so yes, you will have to commandeer the oven.
In fact you should commandeer the whole house, as the odor (fragrence to
some) is quite permeating, and you will create an instant family anecdote.
