Topic Subject : Release Agent for Clothes?

Hi everyone,

I want to cast a full torso from head to waist but I want my model to be wearing a shirt. Any suggestions about how I can prep a shirt to release from alginate? I will try to pick a shirt that is less likely to stick but I am looking for suggestions for something to apply that will make it release easily - without losing much detail. Also the cheaper for me the better (considering I am a poor college student). Are there any shampoos/conditioners that would work? Should I soak the shirt is something? What brands? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
