← Back to What can be used as a release agent for epoxy resin?


Working with epoxy resin at elevated temperatures demands a reliable release agent. Choosing a product that withstands heat ensures smooth demoulding and professional-quality results.
Heat Resistance: What to Expect
“Global A2” Release Wax is designed for high-temperature resin casting and is effective at temperatures up to 180°C. This makes it a solid choice for most epoxy applications where moulds and poured resin can get particularly warm during curing. Always ensure your project requirements stay within this heat limit for optimal performance.


How to Use Release Wax for Best Results
Apply a thin, even layer of liquid wax to the mould surface—be it wood, metal, plastic, or cardboard. The wax dries quickly, usually within 2 to 3 minutes, so you can proceed efficiently with your casting process. Its fast drying time helps streamline busy studio workflows and prevents resin sticking to mould surfaces.
If you’re looking for a release agent that combines heat resistance and multi-surface compatibility, Global A2 Release Wax is a dependable option for both small crafts and larger pours.
When Does High-Temperature Resistance Matter?
- When working with deep-pour or large volume epoxy projects.
- If your casting process generates significant heat during curing.
- For projects using moulds constructed from materials such as wood or metal, where heat buildup is common.
