Haha... In case that wasnt a joke - Don't use your home oven to post cure a styrene based mould. Lots of toxins to linger in there and taint your food. I have a dedicated curing oven, and it stinks of styrene for days after curing a mould in there. In fact it probably always stinks, I just cant smell it anymore haha. Your wife will not be pleased!


Build a dedicated curing oven or even just a simple hot box, they are so simple and cheap to make. Otherwise stick to ambient temp cures, don't use your domestic oven.

Thank you.That hot box is Good idea.Think I seen one on yt where chap making his CF parts for he's classic car.👍
