: Hey Shawn, maybe this would be a good way to prevent your Leidy hatch hooks
: and other epoxied fittings from releasing after sitting on top of the car
: in the sun. Worth a try. Think Michelle would let you throw the hatch lids
: in the oven for a while? :-)

I've gotten caught doing worse!

One time, I tried to post-cure some ski boot-shaped glassed foam chunks to build some "Alpine Trekkers" that would let me skin up a hill on downhill skis.

250*F is too hot for foam and epoxy, and man, was it ever stinky!!!
