Is it possible to use vacuum in a skinning project? I was wondering if I could vacuum bag my part after putting the basecoat, carbon fabric and maybe the first coat of clear resin in order to make sure the fabric conforms to all the nook and crannies of the part. I understand that, based on Warren's reply in the other thread, it could require a bit more finishing work; but having the fabric conform to the shape properly is more important than that to me. 

If this is possible, could you recommend what items I would need to purchase for the vacuum process?
