Hi,
I finally got around to creating a mould for 1/10 scale touring car, so I thought I would share with you helpful people
I had a brand new body shell left over from me racing days.
This new body shell was the perfect candidate to take a mould from, and I also had quite a bit of Easy Composites
Uni Mould
System left over from a
previous project
So I had all the necessary goodies to create a 1/10 body shell mould!
And some spare time to make a mould and video with some royalty free music, good times
Easy Leased the table 2 coats
Easy Leased the body shell 3 coats
Uni-Mould Tooling Gelcoat 3 medium coats
Uni-Mould Coupling Coat (
100g Chopped Strand Mat
)
Uni-Mould Tooling Resin (
450g Chopped Strand Mat
)
Lots of gloves and plastic cups
Here is a video showing the making of the mould.

Nice, shame about the little bit of bridging
I did a 1/5th touring car body some years back. I found running the feed spiral a full 360 around the flange and the vac outlet in the middle of the roof worked best. Some breather cloth under the vac connector stops print through onto the seen side.
