I looking for post cure options. I want to make parts as large as a car hood, but I dont want to build a big oven. 

I have looked at these silicon heat blankets on ebay:

They are probably way to powerful so I may have to find some one that is not that powerfull per sqare cm. 

Iam thinking i can put some of these under the mold and wrap the mold with the heating elements with wool blankets. Then meassuring the temperature and control the heating to get the right temperature. Maybe using a PID or a temperature switch. 

Any thoughts?
