so if i put mighty putty on the outer surface of my plastic part, let dry, cut my design out from the inside. When i cut out my design I won't cut it all the way through, there will be a channel left behind to holster the resin in place. After that im going to let it set over a few days and grind the mighty putty off, sand it, dilute acetone it and texture it.

I think it will work for sure.

There is a mold release product that will help. also the recommended molding surface is silicone  which can be purchased at a craft store.

You have to be careful using a silicone mold releas.. it works the best but if you going to be painting your going to have alot of flaws in the paint. Silicone can really mess the paint up .

I think if I do the resin again I will do all the paint and finish work before the cutting. I will have to be more careful but it may be easier than painting after the resin is applied.

I know this is a large bump..

 I found out that using spray adhesive to tack a piece of wax paper on the xbox for the mold works way better than covering it with packing tape. Wax paper won't shrink with the epoxy... peel it off and clean it with a bit of acetone and you should be ready for paint!

Nice, thanks.  I did like the shrinking effect in this case though.  :tup:
