I have a 3d printed master, don't require tight dimensional accuracy, but do want a nice surface finish. The master has deep pits that would be very difficult to properly sand.
Would it be possible to remove the 3D printing lines by creating a mold, and then applying a thin second layer of silicone to the interior? Just pour some in, rotate it around, then let it drain out.
This seems plausible in my head, but I wanted to do a sanity check before I experiment with some expensive rubber.
