    Well, I've never really had a problem with sticky  forms but I'm 
working with bigger forms than usual so I wanted to anticipate  the potential 
problem. In retrospect there'll be dirt around the finished base  so even if 
there was some wood fragments sticking to the concrete, it'll be  covered up by 
the dirt. 
 
    The consensus is either a petroleum product  (e.g. diesel oil, etc.) or 
a waxy product (e.g. floor wax). Tnx to all  for your input!
