The invention provides a method and apparatus for coating horizontal and vertical components of a vehicle body. The designations horizontal component and vehicle component generally refer to the in-body position of such components (panels) after final assembly. In the method, coating is conducted prior to assembly of such components. According to one aspect of the invention, the vertical panels are coated in their in-body position, and then moved to a horizontal position while baking sufficiently to set the coating. Preferably, the horizontal position is maintained for the entire bake cycle.
