    I know that Swank has baked front emblems after painting in a 250* oven. Not sure if he is on, but he may have some insight too.

    Thinking that the oven heat is dry and will cure the paint quicker than in the elements.
    Or even bring it inside the house someplace where the humidity is less.

    That doesn't seem like a high humidity to me for painting. It's on the edge, but.
    Maybe too many coats in succession. Not sure about that either though. I have done about 3 in rapid succession in that kind of humidity before.

    Hey yeah, I bake my emblems to help them cure.
    I bake them @ 250 degrees for 5-10 minutes. Then remove, let them cool and put them in for a second time for good measure. Makes the final coat of clear/paint nice and smooth.
    Works great for front grill emblems, on emblem sets sometimes the heat is too much and will curve the emblems. That's mainly to me not checking on them. If it's a set make sure you do shorter times and not as long overall.

    PM me if you need any help!

    @youngbuckcody @DrFunker

    edit* - That's for actual paint. If that is plasti-dip I do not know.

    Oh should have asked... @Swank
    He can do this for the mounting plate to fix his (@youngbuckcody) issue, correct?

    If it's metal/plastic, I don't see why not. I've never done anything but emblems so it may vary.
    I'd say use at 250, but do smaller increments, say 5 minutes, check and see how it looks and repeat if needed.
    Paint will be tacky when it first comes out of the oven but will be dry to touch in 1-2 minutes.
