as long as you rotated it so it could be heated all the way around. Might mave worked better if you elevated the stove even with the globes.

If it's in the winter and I've got a fire going in the shop, I'll dangle it over the stove till it cures, in the summer...I just shoot it and let it cure on it's own, especially a primer as I scuff them prior to shooting any paint on top. Most of the paints I use flash off pretty quickly. An oil based paint however will take a bit longer so is more prone to bugs and dust in it. Some of the VHT paints also say to bake, but I've never heat cured any of them and they hold up fine.

As a side note...I made up some little pyramids of wood that sit under the stove and poke through the holes in the bottom. I spray the bottom first...then set the stove on the pieces and can spray the rest of the stove. That way it's all done in 1 shot. Just what I do. Doug
