why are you using peel ply? you dont need to and also have you tried using spray tack to locate the dry fibre in position?

A couple of photos  would be good too , but when you are trying to do a wet lay and vac bag you dont want to pull full vac as you will pull too much resin out.

Hi all.

I am having some trouble with the covering of a complex part.  (Automotive gear lever surround) 
The CF Fabric is not responding well to the contours and hole in the center.  Lifting with resin etc etc....

I have tried a quick method using vacuum bagging material and the pump ...  It seems to be ok so far..but  haven't seen much info on doing things this way. 

Just curious to know if anyone else has tried this.

Im still testing the best way to adapt the fabric to the part ...but it seems like a possible shortcut to covering complex parts  

• Cover the part in CF Fabric 
• Cover part with Resin
• Cover wet part with peel ply 
• Set in bag and apply vacuum.
• After part has dried ... sand the marks from the peelply using thin sandpaper....
• Apply normal layers of resin as finishing coats.
