Proven Techniques: When casting use heavy sprues. Sprue at the heaviest part of the wax so Platinum flows from heaviest to thinnest part of piece being cast.

Tips from a successful Platinum Castor:
Link does a lot of Platinum Casting and his advise is to finish waxes as clean and smooth as possible to make clean-up efficient. He relies on G&S Metals Platinum Casting Grain for successful castings.

Mistakes to Avoid:
Not educating oneself on how to work the metal. Platinum has its own characteristics and is very different than gold.
