Clean mold with CleanWiz®. Porous FRP mold surfaces may require Melax® mold sealer and conditioner. Apply mold release with a 100% cotton cloth. (Solvents in the mold release may dissolve synthetic fiber leaving a deposit or streaks on the mold). Wipe on uniformly using a circular motion. Allow to haze dry. Without polishing, wipe on a second coat in a small area. With a dry cotton cloth, immediately polish the wet area. Wet polishing will result in an easy-to-polish high gloss surface. After wet polishing the entire mold, repeat a second time. Wait at least a half hour before beginning to mold. Repeat wet polish application between parts gradually working up to multiple releases before re-application of the mold release.
Note: Polishing is optional. For matte finish, do not polish. |
