Trying to visualize what that looks like, post up pictures when you get a chance.

As for your question, sorry, I can't help you there.

does it say anything on the can? since its spray paint i think it should just cure on its own. i would just let it cure by air if it doesnt say anything about using heat to cure the paint. or stick it in the oven on at a low heat to avoid the paint getting messed up and the plastic melting.

i would leave it alone jus from experience because i tried to bake something with a 1500 watt infared paint heater from 2 feet away and after 30 min the paint was really ruff and jus looked like really bad orange peel but was very bumpy. lesson learned now i heat up the part before i paint and leave the heater on for 15 min from like 4 feet away and havent had a problem since
