- I bind the gel to one of the glass plates, making for easier handling, but
- meaning a regular gel dryer can't be used. I now put the plate in an oven
- for an hour at about 100 deg C. Before we got a large oven I used to put
- the gel under a group of hair dryers for a couple of hours. It was noisy
- and not as fast as an oven, but it works. I would think this would also
- work for a gel transfered to paper.
