Polyvinyl, water/alcohol-based solution that dries to a solvent resistant film that is water soluable. Use as a mold release or to air inhibit small gelcoat repairs.
We like to refer to PVA as an insurance policy to make sure your part doesn't stick to your mold. Best applied by spray and can be built up in multiple coats to provide a solid parting layer between your part and the mold. Generally a thicker film comes off of the mold and part better than a thiner film.
Can also be applied by brush, roller, sponge, or cloth.

Gallon Partall Coverall Film. Coverall Film is similar to Partall #10 PVA but designed to be used in areas that suffer from extremely low humidity. In extreme low humidity situations regular PVA can pre-release or jump off the mold from static electricity. Partall Coverall is designed to overcome this.
Preferred application is with a spray gun and multiple coats can be applied to develop a solid film.
Mold Sealer is the foundation that a good mold release system is based off of. Using a mold sealer will help reduce microscopic porosity and provide a better surface to release from. This is especially critical when doing closed molding over plug surfaces or temporary molds.
Chemlease 15 can be applied with by wiping or spraying and most molds will require just one or two coats before applying release agent.

Chemlease 70-90 is a unique mold release designed for the polyester molding industry. It is a high slip release primarily for closed molding applications that are highly abrasive yet still require a high quality finish.
If that sounded like a bunch of industry jargon we'll clarify; this is a very slippery release agent that works great on parts that are tough to release. We use it on most of our molds and get 10-15 parts on average before needing to put on a new coat. It goes on quickly and a new or reconditioned mold can be put into production faster than with conventional paste wax releases.

Pint R&B mold release. This semi-permanent mold release is our most aggresive and has the highest slip. Great for resin infused parts, difficult to release or complex geometries, or parts using high tack resin systems. Designed to provide a class A finish while providing a very good release. R&B is compatible with a wide variety of resin systems including polyester, vinylester, epoxy, BMI, and phenolic systems.
Semi permanent mold release bonds to the mold surface and generally provides multiple pulls before needing a recoat. You will need to determine recoat intervals as they are affected by processing method, mold geometry, and resin system.
Keep in mind that due to the high slip nature of this resin, gelcoat pre-release can be an issue with gelcoated parts. We strongly recommend this system with contact infused epoxy parts.
Easy to apply, wipe on wipe off application and fast turnaround for production.
