Don't bother, there are better ways
I've found that baby wipes work just as well and are much easier to use. They are also much more affordable and smell good!
The best ways to get your resin piece out:
Wipe mold out with a baby wipe.
Mix resin correctly.
Let it cure fully.
Flip mold and try to pop is out by applying pressure to the back of the piece.
If your resin doesn't come out easily there is a very simple way to get it out, just lay the mold face down and give it a gentle whack with a hammer, the mold pops right out and easily every time.
With that being said, I bought this mold release as a beginner and it's a waste of money. It's too much money for a bottle with a sprayer that doesn't even work most of the time, I had so much trouble just trying to get it to spray where I was pointing it. There are also a ton of precautions for it, do not get on your skin, don't use in closed areas, ect. In my opinion it's too much of a hassle to have to shake it *very* well for a few minutes, spray it just right because the sprayer is wonky and then wait for it to dry. It's truly a useless pain in the butt.
