I need to make a mould off of a small pattern that will then be used to make a part out of pre-preg in an oven at 250F / 120C. Which product or products would fill this need? The pattern will be out of wood. What product or products are to be applied to the pattern to make it mould ready? Releases needed also?

Thanks in advance for your advice.

I have used these resins in the past making a mould and it worked well. Although I did not need the hig temp features, mine were room temp cure....

The benefit of these according to the manuf is that you can use them up to 275F !!!!! without post cure!!! over and above post cure is recommended.
