All gliders that I kow of are post cured to some extent. The epoxy
resin does not reach it full potential strength untill it has been post
cured.

I see on the DG website that DG post-cures at 35 C (95 F), while Jonkers
claims to post-cure at 60 C (140C). I just looked at a book on sailboat
building, where one builder says he post-cures at anywhere from 176 F
(due to a limit in a racing rule) to 200 F.
