Thanks everyone... What I found is that I need to use even less mold release and less paint. I did notice what Bil said about the petroleum jelly and using less is giving better results. The paint thickened the mix quite a bit cutting it back to a single drop makes it easier to pour. The last step that I added is to put the mold on my 2 month old's vibrating seat for a few moments to shake out the bubbles.
Here's a pic of a sample from the last batch.
Even engineer Fred thinks that I'm getting better at this.
