Hi All,

Is there an advantage in using 400gsm over 200gsm when using resin infusion over a lantor core? Is it always better to have more thinner layers of carbon cloth than fewer thicker layers  eg. two layers of 2/2 carbon twill each side of 3mm lantor core or one layer of 400gsm?Is there an optimum carbon layer core configuration for say a canoe seat. It need a thickness of 3mm to take away the sharp edge.
