UV Lamp

[Mister B Racing]

As much as I hate to go shopping, some good PWD stuff can be found at your local Good-Will store. I found this 36 watt, professional UV nail lamp. It has a built in 120 second optional timer switch, and the lamp has a mirrored base for even light distribution. It was missing 1 of the 4 bulbs.

So for under $10 I now have a UV lamp to cure the polishes on my wheels.

Is anyone using a UV Lamp to cure the polish on your wheels?
What is the general procedure for curing polish on wheels using a UV lamp?

Don't melt them and junk the wheels !! /images/boards/smilies/smile.gif

If you don't find one at the store, they're only a couple bucks more online.

The one I use is very similar to that. Nice find.

I bought that exact same one, I love it. I cure the RR in it very fast!

What!? You can use this to cure RR? And here I thought all I could do with this was my nails! Well...

Why not just use a 60w black light in a desk lamp? Would that achieve the same result?

Hmm. My understanding is that UV output for a curing device (like you'd use for nails, or the dentist uses for your fillings) is a lot higher than that of a recreational blacklight. Don't have any hard numbers, though.
