I have a Justin Wagner gasket that I haven't cured yet either. I asked him
about using the kitchen oven and he said that...
1) I should lay it out flat on aluminum foil on a cookie sheet
2) the silicone is basically the same silicone used in some cooking
molds...as it is a high temp silicone
3) that I could bake something in a mold made of this stuff, and eat it (the
food, I presume - not the silicone).
Since I haven't tried it yet, I can't say for sure, but it doesn't sound
like you need to wait for your wife to leave town. :^)
