That is a different type of release though!
Nice work on the molds BTW!

I actually use a combination of baby oil and flame retardant. That way friction isn't an issue. Anytime I build a kit I'm out of diff lube before I get to that step...
Sorry Tommy!

Keep us posted!

Well the prognosis is bleak, going to take a moment to regroup. I can't seem to keep the polycarb hot enough and the vacuum to suck hard enough to make it work. If it sags too much i get a body with wrinkles, but it still doesn't pull it tight enough to the body at the bottom. no problems with the mold release.
