: Just remember that epoxy gets soft when it gets warm, and steel doesn't, so
: maybe nix the baking? Call your epoxy manufacturer. I think that West said
: not over 130*, but I can't remember. Just follow whatever they recommend.

Also most of the glues used to hold the strips together in the first place will soften and let loose in high heat.
