How do I care for my molds?

Mold Release/clean often.

One problem with various methods of mold release is they can clog the surface of the plaster, making it less porous, so clay sticks to it more. So mold release should be cleaned off as much as possible. A wet sponge after using your mold is a great way to maintain perfect molds.
