TIL a $300 infrared paint curing lamp saved my hide on a rush job for a black metallic respray.
The shop owner needed the clear on a Lexus bumper to be ready for pickup in 2 hours, and that lamp baked it rock hard without a single solvent pop, so what's your go-to tool for speeding up a cure without risking the finish?

My buddy swears by his heat gun (with a diffuser, of course).

Try a small space heater in a sealed booth to warm the whole air, not just the panel.

Ever worry about heat guns creating hot spots on complex curves, or is that just a problem with cheaper models?
