The problem with aluminum foil is that it wrinkles very easily. The resin then gets between the wrinkles and makes it difficult to remove. If you use a large sheet of plastic it can be stretched smoother. A release agent can be applied to ease in the removal. Then the plastic can be reused as opposed to aluminum or tape. The smoother that the resin is, the less you will need bondo or any other filling agent. They can all be costly, so every bit can help.
