🔥 Perfect Resin Casting: How to cast and clean resin like a pro 🔥

This tutorial explains how to clean your resin casting out of a silicone mold. After the cast resin comes out of the silicone mold there's always some clean up to get it ready for painting. I go over how to remove and clean the pour spout, air vents, and flashing (seams), with various hand tools, and demo how I give it a final sanding and prep for painting. I also introduce some power tools that help expedite this process. Here are some materials and tools links from the video:
