Do you post-cure a part inside the mold, or outside (once demolded) ?

I use EC Uni Mould system o build my tools, and EC IN2 Epoxy resin (+GC50 sprayed gel coat) to make the parts. As I had bad results recently when demolding (surface defaults), I decided to let my last part cure for 2-daays before demolding. Now it's time to demold, I wonder whether I should post cure it to strengthen both the mold and the part. A bit paranoïd I guess ^^ It's my kitchen oven, yes, as I only do infusion and not prepreg (I'dlike to but lack a freezer to store the rolls, and a bigger oven as well).

..oh and, do you keep the bagging materials while post curing ?

that's great. I was wondering how the bagging materials react when heated.
