Moving along.

The temporary deck mold has been sanded to remove as much of the foam surface detail as possible. From this point, I will pull a fiberglass plug that will be much easier to sand and detail.

This step is simply applying a liquid sealer to the temp mold before I apply the chemical release wax. The sealer is applied with a rag, and it is wiped on in 5 coats.

You can see the sealer "absorb" into the gel, as it fills all of the tiny voids that might cause the part to stick in the mold.
