Hi and thanks for the vid, informative and enjoyable. My question is can you use any brand of silicon mould release? most of them seem to be talking about resin casting as opposed to silicon to silicon. I'm looking at one called Everbuild all purpose silicon spray, and Molyslip MSS Silicone Spray General Purpose, do you think either one of them, or for that matter any silicon spray release would do the job. Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer.

@JakeThompson

Thank you for watching the video.. I’m glad you enjoyed… I’m not familiar with either one of those sprays.. but a rule of thumb I go by is.. it needs to say silicone to silicone release.. The one I’m using now is from alumilite, it’s called Pol-Ease 2500

@JakeThompson

If you will be putting your molds in a pressure pot when you cast resin in them.. you should degas. If it’s not going in a pressure pot you can stir slowly and pour slowly from a good height.

@MrGroovyHouse-fe4cw

You will probably struggle to stir thoroughly enough without capturing air. Jake's right about pouring slowly from a heigh - that can get out most all air bubbles. You need to pour a stream thin enough that bubles flowing into it are exposed at both sides - and pop! Heating the mold gently in an oven beforehand can help, too. And, taking a tip from the concrete industry, so can vibrating the mold after you've poured the silicon into it, to help dislodge any surface bubbles.
