 Hey Doc, could you kind of explain the use of the dehydrator for me? 
I do know what a dehydrator is..it like dehydrates things..takes the 
H20 out of things. Does it make the paint stick better? Get a 
smoother coat of paint? Do you bake the part before you paint it? 
AND! what kind of dehydrator do you use? Do you use the kind that 
dehydrates fruits? Did you modify one? Just curious..Thanks
