Hi,
AFter pouring, try putting the whole thing in the freezer.  This works for RTV molds (Room Temperature Vulcanizing).  I don't have a vacuum, so this was suggested to me, and it worked!  the low temp. slows down the cure rate, giving the bubbles time to flost to the top and burst.

Warning: make sure to seal the mold well.  I had a real mess in my freezer from one mold!
