Hi Kylle,
that has a fairly tight curve for wet-lay totally possible but tricky, a bristle roller is often a great way to get rid of small air bubbles, however, your part is a bit too small to get one in! For something that size you might want to consider making a matched tool, which is easier than you would think here's an outline of the proccess:
Making the matched tool:Apply a
1mm sheet wax over your current mould (this sets the thickness for the part)
Make a second, 'male', mould off the wax using your normal mould making method (gel-coat, resin reinforcement etc)
Separate this male mould from the orginal mould and sheet wax
Clean the sheet wax from the mould surface and apply your chosen
release agent - You now have a set of matched tools!
Making The Component:Layup the part with 4 layers of 200g cloth in exactly the same way that you already have been doing into the female tool but apply slightly more resin.
After the layup, Place the new male tool onto the layup and clamp the 2 moulds together firmly with G-clamps, any excess resin and entrapped air will be squeezed from between the moulds.
Release the component by separating the 2 moulds, you should be left with a flawless surface on
both sides of your part.
This method is a very reliable and quick way to make smaller parts like this, it's great for batch production of parts and is really cheap to tool for.
If you have any more questions I'd be happy to help.
