I'm pretty much a traditional sort of guy.
Smoke my molds with a candle flame and cast away....
I'm beginning to cast/load my own boolits. Last week I was casting away and my mold got a bit "sticky" so I checked the hinge screw, and the sprue screw was loosening, too.
After a little adjustment, my thoughts turned to a little lubrication. So I got down my can of Silicon spray lube and put some on.
Wow, nicer!
So, me being me, I dusted the inside of the mold (cavities) with the spray which dried immediately because the mold was still pretty warm.
The boolits nearly jumped out of the mold afterward.
Now I searched, and I only came up with a buried post in a thread by Dale where Silicone Spray was mentioned.
I'm getting good results casting.
Anybody know why I should NOT use silicone spray as a release agent?
It seems to work real good. It's the Industrial type, not "Food Grade".
