Haha, I do have a MILF-like neighbor I've been wanting to ask to use the oven for a while 
But you know what, guys, I didn't even heat the tips up and they are totally fine (at least, so far - and it's rained a few times since). I got the paint that can withstand up to 1200 degrees though - the stuff for grills and such. And I did dry to tips in hot Sun and then put them on the car when they dried and ran the engine for about an hour to heat them up some more.

Your home oven only goes up to 350???? Vlad - My toaster oven goes up to 500 buddy. Check your oven settings again.
As to answer you other question, I wouldn't put that in your home oven. Use your neighbors. Tell them it's a potroast.
