Casting stamps

[Riksss]

Hello I have been trying (unsuccessfully) to cast stamps. I have dealt with all my problems but one. I get too many air bubbles in my cast. I use a pressure tank and cast between 45 and 50 psi. I use alumilite clear for my resin. getting frustrated. Need your help. Richard

Maybe you could "Paint on the resin for coverage then cast them. At least then the bubbles won't stick to the paper and you could pour a more liquid resin to the bubbles rise quicker.

Alumilite doesn't like moisture. Maybe there is some in the paper from the glue you used. Try put it in a warm oven for a little bit to dry it out before casting or switch to an epoxy or PR resin.
