Hello all,

I was looking at the new flexible epoxy of easycomposites. Could this be used to create a flexible product which when bent would flex and then return back to its original shape? Like for example a dirt bike fender. 

Alao, how would you select the materials? 2 layers of CF? The product wouldn't need to be very strong, more cosmetic and covering. 

Lastly, is the flexible epoxy UV resistant? If not, is there a good coating that won't crack if flexed?

Thank you in advance.

Thank you for that Matt, much appreciated.

That is good news about the 1kg size. Once I get the plug/mold done I'll give this a try.

Best regards
