I use 1 layer of waxed paper followed by 1 layer of Glad Wrap (or equivalent
both out of the kitchen cupboard), wrapped around a piece the o.d. of the
ballast but longer, then roll the wetted fiberglass on.
The waxed paper will not stick to the mandrel and the Glad Wrap will not
stick to the epoxy and will pull out easily.
Larrys
Wax paper slides off tube ea

Instead of mylar, use a thin release film spiral wrapped around the
mandrel. You should be able to pull out the mandrel then pull out the
release film. You can use steel rods if you want something more
consistent than a dowel.

Hi Tony,
Did you spiral wrap the mylar over the mandrel? I've found that I can
grab the mylar with a pair of duck bill pliers and gently wrap the mylar
around them to pull it out of the tube. It sticks once in a while but I
can usually reach in and pull the stuck piece out with hemostats.
Happy flying,
Jimmy
