i think i am using the wrong wax,im using the APW wax on this page- http://www.cfsnet.co.uk/acatalog/CFS_Catalogue__Release_Agents_76.html
is this wrong?? im using it with PVA.
Wax is wax, just use carnuba wax…but that main thing that goes wrong is application and buffing it off too long.
when i google for carnuaba wax it brings up pretty much all car waxes,is this the same stuff?
im hoping to stop using pva soon and if i can get a good wax that will eliminate the need for it then it will speed things up alot.
the wax i have takes hours to dry so 10 coats would take 2 days to do… 
I do 5 coats of Meguirs popping wax and can have a mold waxed in 3 hours
with no PVA and no release problems im guessing?
I have never used PVA ever and never had a release problem, I will put a layer of wax every third pop out of a mold which is no problem.
i have searched for a quicker way to wax but there is just no quicker way but a fan does help also it will dry slower on a humid day
anyone use the spray wax in the aersol? kinda like pam 
never herd of such a thing i use liquid wax in a gun(stays in all the time) i spray around the edges of my flanges
just got some proper carnauba wax,smells like bananas :shock:
I have one that smells like bananas too
it makes a pleasant change to find something that smells nice with this work! is yours meguires?
i got this one,its all i could find that says carnuaba http://www.allthingscarnauba.com/eShop/Details.asp?ProductID=272
did 5 coats in about 2 hours and gave it a try,popped off perfectly with no pva happy days.
see… I think PVA is very overrated, and if you do a lot of parts out of a molds, just every other pop put a coat on any you won’t have problems
two little questions-
1.will acetone remove all trace of wax from a mold?
2.if i have a two part mold and fill the joint with plasticine,do i wax the mold first?do i wax both halves before clamping them together and then fill or what??
cheers
don’t know about the plasticine, but acetone will not take off the wax, you can get a wax remover for like $5
i would wax every thing then bolt together then clay not sure what plasiicene is?
clay used to fill the join,its kids modeling clay so it never dries and resin wont stick to it.
same thing i am talking about then
wow this meguires wax is awesome,a part i did with my old wrong wax took me 30 minutes to release,just did the same part again and it practically fell out the mold in 30 seconds flat
