peter	Re: painting/baking effects box's Ryan, maybe someone else can give you some better advice, but I try to bake between coats and I 'think' it makes the paint more durable. An hour per coat seems to be a bit long though...I do 15 mins and let it fully cool down before applying a new coat. The only thing I can say for sure is to watch out when you apply your finishing coat...the transparent thing (I don't know the english word for that)...baking it too long and too hot seems to burn it and give it a brown look. It doesn't give you a brown sound though Peter.
