Device and method for monitoring the drying/curing process of coatings

A kit-of-parts comprising a device for monitoring the drying and/or curing process of a coating composition applied at least partially onto at least one surface of a substrate, said device comprising a movable skid, the skid in turn comprising

• at least one substrate holding unit for holding the substrate, to which surface the coating composition has been applied to,
• at least one lamp used as light source,
• at least one pattern holder comprising at least one pattern,
• wherein the substrate holding unit, the lamp and the pattern holder are positioned on the skid relative to each other such that light of the lamp can illuminate the pattern of the pattern holder, and, after said illumination, can be projected onto the surface of the substrate, to which surface the coating composition has been applied to, and which is held by the substrate holding unit, and
• at least one camera,
• wherein said camera is positioned on the skid relative to the substrate holding unit holding the substrate, to which surface the coating composition has been applied to, such that the camera is capable of recording images of the light reflected off the surface of said substrate,
• and an oven, wherein said oven comprises at least one opening through which the skid of the device can be at least partially moved into the oven, said opening being flush closable after the skid of the device has been moved into the oven.
