Basseducer Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 Loco, If you're making jigs it would probably be better to pour some lead in the cavities without hooks to warm it up, then just put them back in the pot. TJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alsworms Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 I wouldn't recommend it. You're better off putting RTV in an oven (at about 250 degrees) for no more than 5 minutes. Bad things can happen in microwaves, and they all vary in temperature.........and temperament. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmik26 Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 You can use a heat gun... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
