So I am looking at this paint (in grey) for my 240z undertray. I was originally going to powder coat, but figure a oil/gas resistant paint might be the go?
They show an oven (although it says fumes are not toxic - I do wonder about the health of putting it in an oven you plan to cook food in). They also show you can run your motor to cure the paint.
However obviously an undertray won't benefit from a running engine (not that I have 1 anyway!) so I was thinking either leave it in the sun to bake on a hot day OR use a heat gun, but they show when curing using an exhaust and it's heat that you should cycle between warm and cold).
I'm not really sure why this is and what negative effects would result from not using either of these methods?
Anyway have any ideas or suggest another durable satin finish paint I could use instead?
The other option I was thinking was caliper paint - since I also have some brake disc hubs to paint etc..

The demo video shows 2 methods for curing.
