Hi,

Got my vacuum bagging kit and almost ready to start experiment of making moulds and parts to radio controlled planes. 

I do intend to make a mould like your air scoop in your videos. 
But I am not sure how to the part itself from epoxy, fiberglass and carbon. 

May I put on release agent 
Paint the mould 
Layer of epoxy brushed on
Put fiberglass and carbon in place with hands as good as possible and then put it into a bagging setup?
