As the title states I am looking for feedback on how to make my resin infusion better.  How can I do better?
I noticed I may wan the peel ply to extend further than the infusion mesh for easier removal.

Please provide feedback after viewing my video:

After the infusion there were some parts that stuck to the PVA instead of the carbon.

Hi, sorry for my late reply. That’s not what I would call a complex shape.
For a inexperienced person I would suggest to use the MTI hose around the perimeter (before someone says I want to make business here I would send that for free) and infuse from center spot.
Using flow mesh until 30mm before the MTI hose.
Make sure vacuum is below 10mbar abs and pressure drop is not more than 1mbar/min.
Send me a PM and I will ship you a sample package
