garanteed release action.
The silicone release that is recommended for the kit has no phase change to
release it; it must at the same time have a consistency that is hard enough to
take the casting impression, but soft enough to break and/or flow once you try
to remove the cast nut.
You might also consider using something that is soluble (e.g. shellac) as a
release/spacer, but then you have to worry about how long it will take for the
solvent to reach into the deepest crevices.

The wax will fill an arbitrarily deep pit as long as its mouth is narrow enough.
On the other hand, the wax will conform well to (i.e. *not* fill) a wide shallow
pit.
