I seem to remember somebody posting something about using uv lamps to cure nitro. I can't find it though.
Is it so?

I believe you are thinking of using IR light not UV.

That could really have a lot to do with it. Boy you must have been really bored when the system was down. Cleaned you keyboard. That's the peak of boredom, unless you're Hesh! :D

Anyway Stefan to the best of my knowledge nitro is not a UV curable as it is a flashing cure needing to evaporate the solvent to cure. Heat can help there ie IR lights.
