Looks good to me...

Maybe post over in uk.d-i-y as well; it's the sort of question the
folks over there would have answers to.

My problem concerns the casting of garden ornaments, using latex
moulds. I find that after about 10 castings, the latex sticks to the
concrete and frequently tears. Has anybody else had a similar problem
and if so have they managed to get over the problem.


Are you using a release agent? Stuff like silicone spray to keep the
concrete from sticking to the mold?
