Right then. Been busy. Mould number 2. Quick run through of the process and highlighting some mistakes I made previously that I have hopefully now put right. Would like to think this will help some chaps that are new to this too. Sorry if it seems obvious to a lot of you, but I know some of you are a bit nervous about moulding as I was. Any advice for your first mould, especially learning from the mistakes of others, I think is very useful.
First thing is get your measurements right. Didn't do this on very first attempt and had a disaster. Another thing is the first layer is your detail. Make sure all the air bubbles are gone. Leave the rubber to settle as in the pics. This was after leaving the silicone twenty minutes. Had lots of air bubbles on my first mould so made sure I left it longer this time.
After this, brush it on. Made sure to leave a nice wide base this time too.
