Method of forming or shaping a resin-bound mass (e.g., core-making or mold-making pattern or core box, particle board, etc.) in or from shaping means having shaping surfaces and releasing the shaped resin-bond mass from the shaping surfaces, which comprises coating the shaping surfaces of the shaping means with an improved, substantially stable, alcoholic dispersion or solution of a release coating suitable for repeated use, heating the coated shaping surfaces of the shaping means for sufficient time to convert the coating thereon to a stable, cured, abrasive-resistant release coating, placing a curable resin-bound mass of solids to be shaped against the release-coated shaping surfaces, curing the resin-bound mass, and separating the cured resin-bound mass from contact with the release coated shaping surfaces. The coating composition comprises a substantially stable alcoholic dispersion or solution of a substantially pure silanol of the formula RSi(OH)3 or partial condensate of one or more silanols of the formula RSi(OH)3, wherein R is selected from the group consisting of alkyl radicals of 1 to 3 inclusive carbon atoms, the vinyl radical, the 3,3,3-trifluoropropyl radical, the gamma-glycidoxypropyl radical and the gamma-methacryloxypropyl radical.
