Hi all

I am new to mould making at home and to this site

I have a Uni-Mould kit from Easy Composites and have made a pattern for a kit car scoop using my original scoop from the car see picture attached

I would really like any tips / advice you may have on how to prep / release the pattern before making the mould

I have read instructions sheets and watch videos BUT would welcome any contributions as you cannot beat the experience of other people that have started out the same way

For example I have a block of filleting wax to use where there might be some under cuts but do i put this on before or after releasing the pattern

Thanks in advance for any helping a newbie

Regards
Ian

HI Hanaldo and Davro

Thanks for the advice I will add an extra coat of release now I have done the wax.

Also Davro thank you very much for the Loan offer on your mould, that is really appreciated However I am really up for making a mould which I am going to do this weekend and hopefully it will be usable (fingers crossed) and doesn't right of my original scoop.

I am really looking forward to experimenting with carbon composite.

Regards

ian
