Hi guys, sorry for the Newbie Question, but this is really giving me some grief.I made a mould with the Easy Composites mould kit, which came out really well, and I'm using wet lay to make parts from it. I've coated the mould with easylease, but when I put a coating of epoxy into it as a kind of gel coat the epoxy beads like water on a waxed car panel. I've tried using release wax and PVA release agent, but they all do the same thing. I did try a gel coat, which was slightly better as it was a bit thicker, but I had to keep brushing it until it had virtually cured to stop it leaving gaps. The part is going to be used near a motorbike engine, so I was using high temp epoxy, which has a longer cure time, so it's harder to keep brushing it to maintain the even coverage.
So, I'm at a loss to know what I'm doing wrong? The mould was thoroughly cleaned before applying the release agents. The part is cosmetic, so the finish is really important.
