We have some complex tools and just the smallest of spots without frekote makes it stuck. Thanks/Chris

If you have really tight corners brush all corners with an artist's brush then damp lint free cloth on all surfaces working from top to bottom. Bit like the joke that bad window cleaners only do round windows

Do things methodically to ensure you get full coverage, and just pay attention while you're doing it, don't be distracted by something else. I've never come across a mould that's so complex that you can't get full release coverage. With that in mind as well, are you sure your sticks are actually due to incomplete coverage? Perhaps there is another issue going on there.
