Easy homemade baking paint! High quality paint can be achieved with a small dryer!

Professional paint finishing is famous for baking paint, in which resin paint with a hardener is forced to dry solidly by the application of heat. The drying temperature must be controlled according to the resin characteristics of the paint used, and CARVEC's CV-Junior is sold in a small package that makes temperature control and drying time easy to understand. In addition to baking and drying homemade paint, this equipment can be used for "various applications" in motorcycle maintenance.

The same operation as a kitchen toaster oven! 100 VAC specifications that can be used with household electrical outlets

Most pleasing of all, the 100 VAC specification enables forced drying of "baked paint" with a household outlet. Industrial products require a 3-phase power supply or a single-phase 200 V power supply, but with this one, you have the freedom to do so.

The control panel has a power switch and timer dial, as well as a drying temperature setting dial for easy operation. The temperature setting is rough, so it is recommended to use a separate thermometer for temperature control.

A variety of pleasant features. Pursuit of high quality finish.

In the center of the ceiling in the drying room is a mount for hooks and a separate thermometer. Paint parts can be hung directly from these mounts for drying.

The actual measured size of the drying chamber, which is of interest, is 275 mm (W) x 320 mm (H) x 250 mm (D), and with the application of an attached shelf, painted parts can be hung with wire for baking and high-temperature drying.

The included simple thermometer that comes as standard equipment has a stainless steel body. Temperature control can be achieved by placing it inside the dryer and visually checking the actual temperature in a realistic manner as the work progresses.

Air blow after high-temperature drying for highly efficient dust removal

For engine parts for 4-stroke minis, this Junior can cover all parts in one unit: even the crankcase, the largest size for 4-mini engines, is roomy enough to dry a set of left and right crankcases for both Honda vertical and horizontal engines at once. Small parts to be painted can be preheated after degreasing and cleaning to improve paint adhesion and finish.

At first glance, it looks like a larger kitchen oven, but that's only in appearance; the heat source portion uses metal tubing. This differs from the quartz glass tubes of ordinary ovens, which can cause damage if parts are dropped. Gun-coat paints require one hour after reaching 180℃. If it is a shrinkable crystal paint, it will turn into a crystal form in about 20 minutes at 120°C setting. After that, let it dry further.

Carbec, the exclusive distributor in Japan of Gun Coat Paint made by KG of the U.S., which is known for its robust paints, and the seller of crystal paint can sprays that are very popular among Sanmeka, has released a small, easy-to-handle multi-purpose dryer for Sanmeka. Carbec has long offered a lineup of the CV series of warm-air dryers for professional use, but many Sun-mechs have asked for more compact products, and the company has also noticed a growing demand for compact dryers not only as paint dryers but also as "hobby tools" for a variety of hobbies. The CV-Jr is a compact paint dryer that allows users to enjoy a wide variety of motorcycle tinkering activities, while infrastructure is the most important factor in the spread of DIY painting.

Although functionally similar to a small toaster oven for kitchen use, including the design of the main unit, the CV-Jr uses a metal tube as its heat source instead of a quartz glass tube as in ordinary ovens. This equipment reduces the chance of major damage, such as cracks in the vital heat source, even if parts are inadvertently bumped. Temperature control is more linear and accurate with the use of a separate thermometer, which is included. It is certainly true that many Sunday mechanics are attracted to professional equipment. However, unlike large products that involve risks both economically and in terms of installation space, small dryers that can be tucked away in a parts cabinet when not in use are attractive to sun-mechanic painters. Once you use it and realize how much you appreciate it, it will become indispensable equipment. In addition to motorcycle tinkering applications, it can also be used for stained glass making and baked potato making.
