I am a little confused as to what you are planning to do. Are you bagging these pieces separately or trying to bag them together with the carbon between them or is the carbon going on the outside?

Hi and thanks for the reply, can you explain how you would envelope the bag for this if you were doing it?

Top piece is pretty tight, you'll have to take your time making sure you don't get any bridging in there. Looks doable though.

Don't try to seal the bag to the underside of the mould, this rarely works. Envelope bag the parts instead, much more reliable.

Although my mould is not quite finished yet can people see if it's going to be okay to vacuum bag it? My idea is to lay some Carbon Fibre and use Fusion Fix spray around the outside top edges where the green arrows are pointing to secure it and then sealing the bag all the way around on the underside of the mould, will this work?
