thryb Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 I have a master that I made, I wanna make a POP mold for it but I would like to have a really "polished" finish. Is it good to put nail polish on your master before pouring the POP? Doest it gonna make a better finish? Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earthworm77 Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 I believe it will gum up from the heat. Spray it with garlic Pam to get shiny baits. Keep it handy and you can respray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

borderbasser Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 Use epoxy to seal the master. The nail polish will likely show brush strokes as it cures too fast to level like epoxy. TJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nova Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 Use epoxy thinned with alcohol(rubbing); I use 90%. I usually put 3 or 4 coats on my molds and they come out quite "glassy". www.novalures.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockylinx Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 I use ELMER S glue. Mix it 50/50 with water pour it in let stand for 5 min and reuse the extra. After 4 coats my bait is glassy and it was easy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
