Hello everybody,
I am new to composites and I have skinned my first parts with quite good (not awesome) results. I have of course first watched many YouTube tutorials and read this forum for many days. (Thank you all).
When mixing the XCR resin it retains many very very small air bubbles. Heating up the resin a little bit with a head gun does help of course, but there are still a lot of very very small air bubbles visible in the cup.
I assume that if I degass the mixed resin in the cup then it would be completely bubble free. But if I apply the resin with a brush, would then again air get trapped in the fibers (because of the brush) making the degassing process completely useless? In simple words, is it worth to degass the mixed resin when working with the wet hand lay-up method? Is there not even a small benefit?
I do not have the required equipment yet and that is why I am asking.

Thank you.
