Hi,

I was wondering what other people are using for release agents for plaster
molds (TLSO, LSO, and AFO casts). We have always sprinkled comet on the inside
of the cast so the plaster doesn't stick to it. Our local Sams club no longer
carries comet. Yes, I know we can buy it anywhere but Sams had it in large
quantities. I have heard of some people using vegetable shortening but that
seems very messy. Your feedback is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
