Nitro in the sun

Sarge

I have a strat body, it had its last coat of nitro (gloss, no clear coat) yesterday.
I've just put it on the washing line in the sun and fairly strong breeze. 
The UV and breeze should be good for it right? Or am I missing something?

Should be ideal - sun will help cure it, and the breeze will allow the nitro to release all its gases

Will it not end up covered in dust and insects?

No it had its last coat the day before, although it did attract a lot of bees

This was my thinking. 
I gave it 2 days in the sun and breeze, but today is rain so might flatten and polish if its hard enough

What products , tools and method of applying have you used if you don't mind me asking ? 
I am trying to decide if I need to spend loads of money or not or ask local guy that does car sprays ?
