Dragon Skin accelerated cure
Discussion started by Duane , on 09 January 01:56 AM
I'm hoping Emily sees this because I know she has posted the answer before, but I can't for the life of me find it.
I have a few dragon skin castings coming up, and I'd really like to speed up the process. I know you can put it in the oven to have it cure in 1-2 hours as opposed to 6 hours, but I don't know the details. Can anyone help me with the temperature and time to leave it in there?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Ok, I followed your advice and it worked! I posted pictures in the photos section.

Awesome, I knew you knew the answer!
I'll throw them in my low-temp oven at around 130 or so.
Thanks!

Hey Duane,
You want your oven at it's lowest temp - somewhere between 50 - 150F.
It should be cured after around 1/2 hour - if you want to be safe, nothing bad will happen by leaving it in for an hour.
