[QUOTE="Tidus56, post: 2029709, member: 104495"] We buffed and polished our molds. Then used mold sealer and mold release, we did this both under and on top of the duct tape. We put the duct tape on basically perfectly, it took an eternity. However we did find a release paper that we purchased and we’re going to use before everyone went back to school. We also used a wax on top of all that, just a light layer and then we buff it away just before the mold was used. we used the same plug for both the foam mold and the stock mold. The plug was the finished form of our stock, coated in a poly coat so it would release. We had a few issues with the plug releasing in the initial process. I would treat your foam mold the same as your final mold. But no the foam doesn’t have to be perfect just real good. [/QUOTE]
