In Response To: Sealing coat... watch out! (Marcelo 9 7/8)

Hey Marcelo that happened to me too. I waxed the all the forms very carefully but still stuck. I was so bad I didn't think they would ever come off. As a matter of fact I had to destroy the stern mold to get it out. Next boat I used duct tape on all stations, and had no problems at all.
