Afternoon all. I've got to do some surface characterisation of various race tracks and intend to take some surface casts.

At this stage I was thinking of using some form of silicone resin to cast a negative then taking an epoxy positive cast from that. The idea being that the silicone avoids the need for any release agent on the road or between the positive and negative.

I'd appreciate some feedback from anyone who's done this before or thinks they have a more appropriate approach.

Regards,

Ben
