No I bought the 3/8th 5/8th mold. Love to have a 1/4 but I've never seen one on ebay, and I can see why no one wants to let them go. I have preset searchs on ebay. There was another 3/8 and 5/8th on and I missed it by $5 bucks.

The one I got I put right in on the buy it now.

The mold got here and I know it will pour fine but it's a bit scuffed - I've never cleaned up a mold what do you guys suggest??

baking soda and water and a toothbrush. I like the arm and hammer baking soda toothpaste and a battery powered toothbrush as well. Least agressive cleaning I can think of

Some of the black may be removed by a quick soak in vinegar.

Unless there is a pouring issue, I would leave the faces alone. If you really wanna got at them, cleanser and a scuffing pad work very well. as does 600 grit wet dry SiC sandpaper.

Note, a quick application of drop out, and you will never see the discoloration.

I would suggest using their light wire brush after I got through I would shoot it with WD-40 on the hinges make sure that is working freely
