I'm making a pair of front wings for a car with 300g Kevlar.

There is one section with a 90 degree bend right, a piece 25-30mm and then a 90 degree bend left

but I cant get the Kevlar to sit tight on the corners no matter how much I wet it out but when it is half dry/set

I can mould it into shape pretty good.

Any advice please? I am doing hand lay up.

Thanks for the reply.

How about some of that white plastic corner trim for showers etc, cover it in mould wax and clamp it on?
