Looking into IR Lamps for coating cure
Before I would let the car sit for 24-48 hours before customer pickup, but now I may need to get the cars out faster. I have seen people using the IR lamps and I hear it speeds up the curing process?
Just looking for some insight on which lamps everyone is using.
Thanks!

I think these are the biggest in the IR Lamp game. Spoke to them at SEMA last year, nice people.

Re: Looking into IR Lamps for coating cure
Have no experience with ir curing. But I have seen that Scangrip released last year a set of UV curing lamps. Don't know if it's getting you any benefit with a faster curing or something else it benefits from. They seems to draw very little electricity and is li-on battery powered.
Search for Scangrip NOVA-UV S
And see if it's something that could be an option to go with.

Great lamp, multiple angle settings. Down side, rather a large (3 Heads) unit.

Yes, I like it. Yep, it will decrease your curing time.
