Has anyone used or experimented with glitter or metal flake-type material when making laminates for added decorative effect?
I'm assuming that it won't penetrate fabric enough to be added to the resin during infusion so perhaps it would need to be added to an in-mould coating or post-production laquer
Bling overkill or can it be done subtley to add a little sparkle to 'plain old carbon'?
