I’m going to use epoxy glue in a small mold to form a roughly cork shaped plug. The glue mold was made by drilling into a roughly 1” deep piece of aluminum. The hole will get partially filled with epoxy and then left to dry. Once the glue has dried, the plug will be removed from the mold.

Does anyone have any recommendations on what to use as a release media for the epoxy? That is, what media can I put between the epoxy and the aluminum so that I can remove the plug from the aluminum and also remove the release media it after the epoxy has dried? I considered doing some experiments but thought I’d ask around first.

Thanks for your suggestions!
