Landry Posted April 18, 2017 Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 If it isn't like glass inside then u will likely never get clear sides. I am guessing the bottom got shiny and clear when u used Pam cause that is where the oil settled the most. Been down this road with large POP molds. U need a new master if this matters to you I am guessing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porkmeatballs Posted April 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 It looks pretty smooth to me, but I guess there may be some small blemishes here and there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted April 18, 2017 Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 Where are you getting your garlic flavored PAM? I've looked everywhere, but I can't find it anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Landry Posted April 18, 2017 Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 I've had it for a few years so not sure it's still available here in Canada or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Years ago, before I used PAM for a mold release, I used to spray the garlic on my air popped popcorn! I thought maybe I could take some garlic flavored olive oil, and spray it through one of the spray bottles like I use for cleaning water, but I'm afraid it would just clog up. I may wind up brushing it on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never had any problems using worm oil in those molds. Just a thin layer will work and needs to be repeated after every half dozen pours or so. I imagine the silicone negates the sticky effect since nothing really sticks to it. I tried substituting "Worm Oil" for mold release when I ran out one time and it made de-molding worse from aluminum molds; and these were decently polished production molds. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You actually used mold release on a polished production mold? Did you need to for some reason? I have yet to use any release agent on aluminum.
