Found this in the "how to" area:

Step 15 With your safety glasses on, slowly increase the pressure of the bladder to 10-15psi. Check if the bladder is providing pressure on all parts of the mold. Pay careful attention to the tip and tail areas. If there is a problem release the bladder pressure and make the necessary adjustments. Perform an inspection on the press and make sure the frame shows no signs of malfunction.

Step 16 Gradually increase the bladder pressure to the desired operating pressure (30-60psi) in 10psi increments. Perform the routine inspections of the press along the way.

Step 17 Leave the press running until the epoxy has completely hardened. We usually leave our presses running 10-12 hours at room temperature. For colder temperatures you may need a longer pressing time.

As allways, keep in mind the safety aspect of your press! I usually go no higher than 40 psi, measured at the hose.

future,
Try these. They ar used for steel rims on vehicles. They are called schrader valves. Very easy to use and no need for silicon.

I purchased mine at the local tire store. All this is, is a valve for inflating your tire on a car.
