[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 790422, member: 325666"] ..Well not unexpected really .. I'm having great difficulty applying heat evenly onto the plastic surface ..it has a tendancy to heat the air under the plastic ..causing blisters of hot trapped air .. Not given up totally on this yet ..but may well be ..I end up going for a heavily greased surface on the dish itself ..then applying fibreglass sheeting directly and allowing to dry to a hard removeable shell ...in other words ..the dish itself becomes the mould. Some experiment needed to make sure it doesn't bond to the dish surface and become permanent. Don't get me wrong ..the above method worked ..but not as well as I had hoped. rgds VS [/QUOTE]
