DIY: how to make your headlights black housing with 20 bucks...

I did 250 for like 8 minutes and it worked pretty well. Every oven is different so around there should be fine.

I put a tray upside down on the bottom, another tray on top of that tray and some micro fiber towels on the top tray just in case the headlight melted :S

Would I be able to bake in the oven at 225 for about 13 minutes? I have tried using a heat gun but everywhere I read seems to agree the oven is faster and easier as well as giving you more control.
