Gunsmithing Another Cerakote Question

[JimT]

I couldn't find the answer on the NIC website, so hopefully someone here knows the answer.

Yesterday I shot a rifle with H series and put it in the oven. I plugged in the oven and went about my business. I returned to find the oven wasn't on. I discovered the control was blown (the black soot was a clue), so it's off to the appliance repair place tomorrow.

Question: Do I have to start all over again (blast, acetone, coat) or can I cook it later?

If it didn't cook at all then you can just wipe it all back off with acetone and brakekleen as it won't have dried. If it has dried to where acetone doesn't take it off easy then start over.

I kinda had a feeling someone was going to say that....

Thanks for the info.
