Hey All,

Im new to this whole Carbon work and thought id buy a mould making and laminting kit from easy composites.

Now as my first test of how this all works im attempting to make a carbon replica of my B&M Shifter cover..

A few questions:

1) am i best to cover up and smooth all the edges with plasticine / wax filler ??

2) am i best to use the wax mould release on this and lay carbon down onto it OR

3) am i best to take a mould of it and smooth the mould out with wet and dry before laying the carbon down on the mould..

Below is some pics of the gaps and cover in question...









Once and if this comes out well i will attempt to modify my existing dash and remove the gauges and  recess my digital dash into it..
