Oh, true that. Forgot about the paint needing to be heated to dry haha. OH WELL, the insides fixed, just the outside I'll leave alone.

@turok: The orange peel effect isnt half bad on the pistol. But if it was on a lower receiver for a rifle, I would definitely use duracoat instead of the powder coat.

There was probably a bubble within the cast itself. When heated, the bubble expanded.

I once had Dave re-colour a cast frame for me, and the front end of it practically melted during the oven phase. :P
