Headlight question.
Headlight question.
So I want to experiment with my headlights, so is it safe to use my oven that I use on a regular basis to cook food??
neighbor says it is not safe at all and im not sure if he knows since he has never baked headlights.

Uhhh, yeah, the same oven. Unless you've got one of those "for headlights only" ovens in the garage.

Dadon-yes, you can use a regular oven. I've done it-if you're baking your headlights to clear them, bake them for 20 minutes at 200 degrees. Bake your headlights one at a time.
I've seen such erratic temperatures and times for baking lights... Anything from 150 to 260deg and times of 5-25 mins. I put my old Denji glass ones from my accord in for 8 minutes @ 225F and the glue had softened enough that I could get it started with a screwdriver and just pulled them apart by hand (with gloves) and using a razor to slice through the glue quickly.
I did what Tehvine said.. I baked for about 8 minutes at 200, just enough to get them started and cut the glue. I then put the housing back in after I got them apart to heat up the old glue, so it could be removed
