Curing the powder puts off a significant amount of smoke. DON'T try
this in your kitchen oven. It'll never be the same. I have an old
kitchen oven in my shop for small stuff and it get stained where the
smoke comes out. The smoke isn't a problem in the shop, but the shop is
not attached to my house, and also not terribly well sealed, so I don't
worry about it. The inside of the oven does take on some of the colors
cured in it, though.
