My thoughts are KG Gunkote does not reach its full cure when it is brought out of the oven. Ditto for Duracoat. Some folks say it really reaches that ceramic hardness a year later. I dunno, I always bake KG GunKote an extra hour or so. Joe Fazio said it does not hurt a thing.........

I might add my experience is only with the KG GunKote 2400 series.
