Hi,

What produce better surface quality? I have tried wipe on method, but it leaves wipe marks and wet marks to some places. Can someone who sprays semi-permanent can talk about the difference from wiping. I am using Frekote.

@ Hanaldo
Yes I know It is lots of waste, but the surface quality matters more. PS I can't polish the final product, it is matte looking.

@ scottracing 
I have tried cotton cloth and paper towels. 5 coats, slightly wet film, 15 minutes between coats. I am using Frekote NC44. My moulds are like rectangular bowl, lots of corners.

try to wipe on and wipe off 15min later with a cloth that is barely wet with frekote and keep polishing. never used frekote but should work i assume. for things like this i like to use axel 832 which is really easy to apply.

I can't do that, because my frekote vaporize in seconds and unevenly. But I think it's time to try other brand. 

But other thing is multiple coats. I was thinking, that if I put next wet coat on and wipe it off, doesn't it destroys the previous coat, because like frekote says not to touch the wet coat?
