Ok. Thank you very much.
Well, every cast will have some flashing anytime you have a two part mold. If you are getting pits or globs on the cast then there are most likely some imperfections in the mold. This could be due to the type of silicone that was used because a lot of silicones require a vacuum pump to remove the air trapped in the silicone. You may have to make a new mold with a silicone that is designed for use without a vacuum pump.
If you are getting shinny circular 'holes' in the cast then you are getting air trapped while you are pouring the resin. You can try to pour at a different angle so that the resin 'rolls/runs' down the top of the claw to the bottom and then fills the mold from the bottom - up.
I hope that helps, good luck.
Without seeing it in person I couldn't say what the issue is.
Ok. Thank you very much.
