I would really like to learn how to do this because these detail pieces are getting more scarce buy the day. Just want see what other modelers have come up with. Mark 2285_

If the detail was captured by the mold, and is not coming out in the cast pieces, you may need to "work" the casting material into the tiny cavities in the mold, before or as you fill it. Be careful not to introduce air bubbles as you do that.
We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
