I am having my FAST painted, do you know what temp I can have it baked at that it won't mess it up?

I thought you could only powder coat metal. An engine can run at over 250*, but I don't know how far you can go without warping the thing.

You can't powdercoat plastic.

400-450 degrees to powdercoat not good for plastic

Plastic is not a conductor.
