Post Cure:
My plenum's are not part of the cowling, but little shells that fit over the top of the cylinders. They are small enough so I could post cured these in the Kitchen oven. I started out at 250, let sit for 10 minutes. then raised it 25 degrees, let sit for about ten minutes, I repeated this until I had it up to 350.
Cowls - DO NOT POST CURE COWLS. When you post cure, it softens the epoxy a tiny bit, then recurse at the new higher temperature. The epoxy will not re soften again until you reach the new higher temperature.
This process makes the epoxy much harder than if you let air cure at room temperature.
The cowls will maintain a better fit if they are allowed to post cure while mounted on the plane. The heat from the engine will be more than enough to do the post cure.
For other parts, its EZ to post cure.
Set them out in the direct sun. Be very carefully when doing this as its easy to over heat the part and damage the underlying foam. Generally, if there is blue Styrofoam, I use the "Rule of Hand". It may get hot to touch, but if I cannot leave my hand on the surface, then its getting to hot (About 140 deg is just about the max pain threshold).
If there is no foam, I usually don't worry about it, Unless the part is painted black its not going to get over 200 deg.
I've post cured wings, canards, and just about every part I built in this manner.
Post curing stabilizes the epoxy at the higher post cure temperature.
