Well, I've never really had a problem with sticky forms but I'm
working with bigger forms than usual so I wanted to anticipate the potential
problem. In retrospect there'll be dirt around the finished base so even if
there was some wood fragments sticking to the concrete, it'll be covered up by
the dirt.
The consensus is either a petroleum product (e.g. diesel oil, etc.) or
a waxy product (e.g. floor wax). Tnx to all for your input!
Cheers,
