Hi,
I got some problems with the
Easy-Lease Mould Cleaner
.
I want to make new molds from vinylester gelcoat and resin for infusing and maybe later prepreg .
Before I always made my moulds from normal gelcoat and polyester resin so I used only wax what never gave any problems .
But now with the vinylester products I had problems demolding the moulds from the normal polyester parts with normal wax .
When I got the vinylester mould ready I infused some parts and it worked verry well no release problems with normal wax .
Now I wante dto make a new vinylester mould from a carbonfibre race parts and again the vinylester mould wouldn't release from the arnon fibre part .
So now I wanted to use the
Easy-Lease Chemical Release Agent
I used a new polyester part I pulled from a old mould of me , polished it to mirror finish and then I cleaned it with the Easy lease mould cleaner and then the looked like the pics.
When I use the mould cleaner on a unpolished part it looks fine and stays the same look .
