I'm now ordering from Easy Composites and was wondering about one thing.
If i will use Soric between a layer of carbon fiber and Diolen, do I need to put another layer of resin infusion mesh between the Diolen and the vacuum bagging film?
It says in the description for Soric that you dont need infusin mesh but since I use the Soric between two other layers I maybe need it anyway?

Thank's for your help!

For such a large infusion, I'd be tempted to use infusion mesh everywhere, just because for a few pounds in cost, you have peace of mind that you know you won't have resin flow issues.

You will need some mesh to bridge the edges that have no Soric.

Soric as a flow media is slightly slower than mesh so for such a large part, having mesh might be a better idea.  You can always slow down the resin flow by restricting the feed line, however if its too slow there is little you can do!

Great, thank's Warren!
I was actually thinking of ordering some mesh anyway, just to be shure that there will be no problems with the infusion. So now, I'm totally shure of ordering mesh!!

Thank you!
