Hello to everyone.
Easy Composites provide the easy preg system that gives nice finish .
For this reason i am thinking that i want to combine it with the prepreg 
i already have - a 330 gr/m2 unidirectional .  
So i am thinking of 2-3 layers of my uni and the easy preg on top.
My uni cures from 100 to 130 so i can cure the hole part in 100 celcius.
Does anyone thing that combining this two prepregs would cause unexpected 
errors ?

It is prepreg from hecxel. 
It can have various curing scedules.
one example is ramp up till 70.C. Then stay there for about 40 min and then ramp up at 100 for 4 hours or at 130 for 2 hours then cool down. 
Problem with easy composites prepreg is that it does not have 
Unidirectional....  So for strength applications it is useless
