Hey guys. Just finished up this mold for a friend. The plan is to make a cf splitter with a divinicel core.I'm thinking the best way is to vacuum infuse it in two separate parts:1) part 1 would be the visible, cosmetic layer using 3 layers of 2x2 twill.2) Then I would tear the peel ply off and lay the divinycel down with another 3 layers of 2x2 twill on the underside.3) then vacuum infuse the second layer with the divinicel sandwiched between.Do you all foresee any problems with this method? Here is the splitter and mold:  I added some relief tabs so I could insert a wedge to pry out the spliiter: |

Not sure if I am understanding you completely. Why not infuse the whole thing in one shot. I have many times infused in my molds. 2 layers of 2x2 carbon twill, with 1/4 inch divinycel and 2 more carbon layers on top. Fred
