20 min at 350, for me.

Put 3D eyes on AFTER baking.

I agree 20 min at 350. Except for a glow yellow that I got from Barlows that had a tendancy to drip. That one I would cook at 275 for 10 min, then move up to 350 for an additional 15 min.

The last batch of chart powder I got, YES, & it has been driving me NUTZ!!! I assumed I was just getting too much on the head......

I will try curing at a lower temp & see what it does.

I do everything at 325 for 20 minutes. Timer starts once temp is over 275. I did bake recently for about 2 1/2 hours.. opps. Didn't notice any difference in colors.

Chartreuse can be troublesome at times. If head is a little too hot when you dip or you dip a little too long it can cause trouble too.

Here is a post o made several years ago that is the Pro-Tec suggested time and temps for curing!
Personally I use 390-400 degrees for 15 min which in my little toaster oven means I need 17 min to give it time to reach temp. The only color I don’t do this with is Pearl!
