One of the advantages of 2 kids in nappies is having tons of talc/baby powder in the house
I actually tried to buy mould release, and the guy seemed like he didnt want to sell me any
Conversation went like this:
Me: I also believe i need some mould release.
Barnes Dude: What are you casting again?
Me: Bases for miniatures etc
BD: Oh right, well if you are recasting resin Ultrasil wont need any mould release (this comment alone had me wondering who recasts and what they do in that area!)
Me: ummm im making my own and using things like foam and sand.
BD: Oh you still wont need mould release ... (uncomfortable pause
)... if you really need to you could just use some Vaseline.
Me ok... what about after i make the mould and am casting?
BD: Oh you wont need any to cast 4PU in Ultrasil.
At that point i gave up pushing trying to spend my money
And thanks for the tip on Demoulding tonight. Although im dead keen, i would be happy to leave it all as it is right now for a week if i thought it would make it better
