Made using infusion with carbon/soric and epoxy resin with a nice gloss straight from the mould, I used pro finish for the V weave and it was still complex due to the compound curve of the panel.

Being ultra, ultra, ultra, ultra critical, and it may be a trick of the light, but the "V" appears to go slightly off line around the mid point, ie not quite on the "ridge" Damn fine effort, I would be more than happy with that
I hate it when customers ask for the "dreaded V"
looks like I will sending stuff your way

Yes its a trick of the light/camera angle , its spot on down the the centre Warren
I used fine line tape down the centre of the mould,. Measured twice, walked away for a brew then measured twice again
I feel it was worth the effort as it works well on certain panels.
