I made a wing mirror today.  Went fairly well.  Perfect vacuum from the off etc.  However, the resin shot through the mesh pretty quickly.  The surface is a bit dull and pinholey.  What I observed was a quick infusion through the mesh and, after clamp off, there seemed to be some fine bubbles come from the stack.  I assume that the resin shot through the mesh and the fine bubbles was the resin infusing into the cloth (1x660g carbon).  This leads me to believe that if I could slow the rate of infusion it would infuse into the cloth at the same time as it flows through the mesh.  Now I think I could do this by either only opening the clamp a small amount or by infusing just through the peel ply (its a small part).  Does this sound like a reasonable conclusion and course of action?
