dhammer Well Known Member Sep 17, 2008 #3 Release Make sure any wax you use is specifically for that. Virtually all commercial car, marine, and floor waxes contain silicone. I usually brush on a couple of coats of PVA. Works good ans washes off

It does work great if the mould he was asking about will allow that. It would be hard to apply tape to a compound curve inside of a female mould. That's where PVA works the best. Spray it on and wash it off.
