Working on my second body shell. This is going easier than the Porsche but I think I have made a big mistake in not including items like the exhaust system and filler caps etc. as part of the original cast. I had plans to make a few variations on the car so though that leaving these bits off would make things less complicated.
My current problem is with the resin. I've just had two attempts at casting some of the smaller items to finish the car off. As far as I'm aware every thing was clean and I mixed together correctly. The mixture looked the same at earlier casts I have done when I poured into the moulds. However when I returned it was as if the resin had turned to foam. It had bubbled up out of the mould and the cast parts were full of holes and fell to bits when I touched them.
Any suggestions as to what I've done wrong and how to solve.
