Hello
I´m gonna buy your infusionkit with epxy for making a roofpanel in carbon.
My problem is that my mold is in fiberglass and polyester.
What i have read is that not so good for use with epoxy? I read that the only soloution is to have PVA that isolate the polyester from the epxyresin?
But if i use
https://www.easycomposites.co.uk/clearpol-iso-npg-clear-polyester-gelcoat
should that work? Becouse its a polyester gelcoat that work with epoxy.
I am thinking wrong? Or is that gonna work?
I am from Sweden so sorry if i spell wrong.
Best regards Magnus
