I just finished a split mold, made of High temp gelcoat + putty reinforcement
Before completing the second halve, I applied 6 easylease coats on the first halve of the mold and the pattern.
I left the mold to cure.
Can I let the mold 5 days before separating the two halves ? Will the easylease still work in 5 days . I know this is semi permanent release but I was wondering if it had a limit in time.

Thanks

Hi MattMy question was more about demoulding time,But I think it was answered also on previous posts on the forumI understood I can let a mold for curing or a closed mold with a cured parts inside for multiple days with no more problem for demolding as long as the release agent was applied during the process.Thanks againHave a good end of the year!

Got it, right - sorry! Maybe too many Christmas sherries over the break. Quite right though, there is no limit to how long you can wait, all it will do is improve things by ensuring full curing of the resin and therefore reducing any possible print through.

Really happy with the result
