A method and apparatus for accelerating drying of coatings on contoured articles and particularly articles having internal recesses or passages. The coated article is suspended by a hanger from a conveyor or other support and a rotatable drive mechanism is operably associated with the hanger and acts to spin the coated article about a vertical axis, while the article is exposed to an elevated temperature, to accelerate drying of the coating. The spinning substantially increases the drying rate, particularly in internal passages of the article, and provides a more uniform dried coating.
