Hi I'm doing resin infusion and I'm very happy with the glossy finish apart from some tiny gaps around the fibres on the surface finish.any ideas where I might be going wrong?

As previously said clamp the resin output line first and allow the vacuum in the bag to suck in some resin before clamping the resin input line this should give you a nice resin rich part, without the pin holes Smile 

The clamping time can vary depending on the area of the sheet your pulling.
