I have been a Colour De Verre customer for a LONG time, and I am still impressed with their customer service. Jim I just want to tell everyone about a very impressive experience I had; I had been having problems when spraying MR-97 on a molds the spray was not leaving a smooth texture on the molds i...

I think that you are applying to much.
Might pay to visit colourdeverre's website.
They have a good "how to" video.

Follow their directions on "Priming your mold with ZYP. The mr97 brand has been discontinued, but the ZYP brand is exactly the same product.

How so ?
Jim

I also have the HF saw'
It cuts OK, but it sounds like the saw has square bearings ">)

Welcome back, Grammy.

We will need a lot more information than this.
What kind of kiln, controller voltage. and any other descriptive things you can think of.

I use them for all of my cutting and they work GREAT.

WOULD LIKE TO SEE A PIC OF THIS MOLD PLEASE
Jim
excuse the shouting, please.

You are going to have to fight me for that position. :>)

What this looks like to me, is a volcano spouting lava at the top with feeding chambers at the center and bottom.

Also, you can program the kiln to go afap to about 1200 or so, and then open the door and look at the elements. If one set is dark, then you will know what the problem is and then continue to trouble shoot the problem' Jim That's one of those "how long is a piece of rope" questions, anyway...

A bit pricy??
It' a BE product :>)

Can you try an oxidizing atmosphere?

But, if you only get one tip that is useful, then it is a really good investment.

Any acidic solution will work.

What Les said in spades.

Use a STRONG magnet.

As a last resort, you can take a demel and make 3 or more coresponding "chips" on the mold.
I'll bet nobody has a mold like that :>)
