In Response To: Epoxy: mold release question (Scott Shurlow)

My idea would be to put saran wrap on
: the boat and covering it with butter to create a mold release.
: Would the saran wrap and butter work?

Hi Scott,
I have used floor polish for wood, polished to a high shine in a kayak mold. Works very well, better than any release agent.
