Hi Guys
Im trying to make a mold of an existing part /that i use as a plug)
Ive given the part 5 times of carnauba wax and then 2 coats of PVA (20 min cure between layer) I didn't have the time to put on the epoxy tooling gelcoat.
So my question is, will the PVA still "work" if i put on the epoxy tooling gel coat in 24 hours? or will i need to put on new PVA?
Is there any reason with applying more than one layer of PVA (to be sure that all corners and fed ) ?
Cheers
Christian

No time limit as such, you just want to apply it before it gets covered in dust or other possible...
