has anyone ever used a food dehydrator to dry paint on model cars faster? any tips?
I have been using dehydrators for several years to dry paints like Testors and Humbrol. Most other people who use them just leave them in over night. I prefer to leave the model in for 16 hours. The way I like to do it is, put the dehydrator in a box or cabinet large enough the model will fit on a drying stand on top of the dehydrator.
