I have watched a few of vids on you tube and they all use vacuum for best results. Cheap way is to pour from a high height, 3 or 4 feet, that elongates the material and removes someof the bubbles. You have to have no air movement for this. I will try to track down vid I saw on this.

Awesome results for first attempt!!
