I have a few sets of rims/tires I'd like to cast, but I don't want to ruin the originals.
yes i didnt use any silicone baby powder on some circumstances and the tire isnt painted its dyed while mixing the resin. but the mold looks unstable because its missing locator pins so it could slide at any time.

im still trying to knock these out but not having much luck
