Question For Mask Makers - BRASFIELD32 - 06-07-2009
When you have the mold complete.I used a release agent before molding.My question is before pouring your latex in the mold do I need to spray the mold with anything or will the latex pull release with no problem.(if i do need to what is best to use)Just wanted to be sure.How long do you let your latex sit in the mold before pouring out the excess for normal wearing thickness.I know some of you get frustrated with these questions so I apologize in advance,I just want to hear from someone who has been through the process...Thanks so much

Hope this helps Lewis
