Thanks Gordon, Ken and ?Bob.
That's a good idea to dry the paint in the oven. You don't know how much is
125F in european ?Celsius, do you? Well, I'll find out. The temperature
overshoot should be no problem. I'll use my wifes glass casting oven which
has a very fine heat control.
Gordon, to grit blast means to do it very gentle, just enough to make a
slightly rough surface, right?
Thank you all for your help!
