Abstract
A method and a device for drying workpieces that have been provided with a fresh surface coating and are conveyed through a drying zone in a housing wherein hot air is applied to the workpieces to dry them. At least a fraction of the walls and/or built in component in the region of the housing to which the workpieces are conveyed have hot air applied to them for preventing formation of condensate. A hot air barrier may be provided at the inlet or the outlet of the drying zone. A material for bonding and storing liquid may be provided on at least a fraction of the walls and/or built in components.
