Sabot,

Are you talking about the liquid latex in a white jar with a screw on lid? I have used that also for recasting sections of cobblestone road. I bought some resin road sections, paint on the rubber, several coats as you stated, then peel off. I then used plaster of paris(high quality) to cast new sections for display bases. I'll hav to try it for casting small parts. Had a fellow club member that used it to cast vehicle stowage.

That's the stuff. I apply it using the Testors white brushes. I'll look up the name at home. I've cast molds of road wheels inside detail. Since most Sherman road wheels don't have an inner detail, I took a spare road wheel from the parts box and removed the outer road wheel portion until all that was left was the hub detail. I then drilled out the center of the road wheel. The remaining piece looked like a fat washer with the road wheel detail on one side. I then made a mold of it and started casting these "inside road wheel" details. They fit into the back side of a road wheel and add detail that was missing. I made enough for one tank (12 of them) and was goint to add them to my Jumbo Sherman when I re-made it. But then a thread stated that the open spoked road wheels were more common. I'll use them with one of my new M4A3s.
