Remove wax from the mold? Why? Do you mean removing wax from the laminate after it's removed from the mold?
Thanks. I did some testing last weekend with the Sika 221 and various materials including anodized pipe, PVC, etc. on smooth fiberglass, not even...
Aluminum bolts will be something that I'll investigate. In fact, here are some that might work for me if I decide to add fasteners:...
