I am casting a large section in a silicone mould using Glasscast 50 and then sanding the open surface back. I want to have a clear, glossy and flat coating on top then.
Is it possible to use Glasscast 3 as a thin coating on top of Glasscast 50 to achieve this ?
Is there any other method which would achieve the effect ?

Glasscast 3 worked for me as a "flow coat" to achieve a gloss finish after sanding the glasscast 50

Thanks for that Matthieu, and for all your videos.
