Hi guys, I'm currently in the middle of making a Suzuki GSX-R 1000 bike kit from prepreg.
I laid a side unit up yesterday and when I went into the oven to prod the carbon about after the initial hour to squeeze the resin into the mould I found that the bag had popped.
So i basically re-bagged the part as quick as i could.

All was fine with the second bag and I cured it for the correct time.
I took the part out the mould this morning to find dryness on parts of the part and there was a slight part that got stuck to the mould.
Is there anyway to avoid these dry spots should something need rebagged during cook time or is it just a case of the part will be useless due to the loss of compression?

Thanks.
