Hi! This is a cool idea!

Did you use any kind of lubricant to keep the hot glue from sticking to the clay? Also, is your mold reusable?

The mould is reusable..
No the clay itself is lubricated..as you can also see there is no spreading of Colors on my hand
Also if you do my suggestion to make it easier to get out it out of the mold, the mold should be reusable. If you wanted to let the clay dry, it'd become a permanent reusable mold. Alternatively after each one you make, you could pop the bearings out of your new spinner and use that to recreate the mold after pulling the clay out, rolling it around a bit, and placing it back into the container.
You could easily use a bit of flour or baby powder but you'd have to be ok with having your spinner be kinda white on the one side. Mind you if you washed it with soap and water (or just rinsed it off), let it dry, and then painted it this is a non-issue.
