Does anyone know if tooling gelcoat sticks to vinyl?

I just wondered if vinyl could be applied to a plug as a temporary smooth release layer before applying a tooling gelcoat to make a mould rather than prepping it with release agents/wax?

Negative, vinyl is no good unless you're using PVA. 


Thanks Hanaldo!
