Powder coat baking.

So i powder coated my jigs today for the first time. They were supposed to be baked for 20 minutes. I kind of forgot about them and they cooked for 1.5 hours at 350. The finish looks great. Do you guys think that additional time will harm the integrity of the hooks?

Everything is better on the rocks.
