how are molds effected during the oven curing process? im asking because in any tutorial i see molds are left to cure in room temps when being made, but the product being made from the mold could be oven cured cured.
my reason for curing a part is because, like a bonnet, its close to heat and i heard that if a cf bonnet isnt oven cured, it could deform when fitted to the car so how does the mold not deform when its cooked with the cf part?
is there a benifit to curing molds in an oven?

I assume from that and your other posts you are going pre-preg. You must have some wealthy customers if they can afford a pre-preg bonnet.
