In my experience, making sure the wax model is perfect before making the ceramic shell was the key when I was casting my stoppers. It really helped in getting the fine details I wanted.

You might want to look into getting a different type of casting equipment if you're having difficulties with details. I shifted to lost wax casting and it significantly improved the details.
