Adding extra reinforcement later on

Guys,

This is my 3rd carbon fibre project. It has taken me a great while to complete the mould. Still I am on my learning curve. 

This is the largest mould I have made and it had me up until 0330 last night. I underestimated how long the reinforcement took to lay down and wet through.

I have some areas like in the corners that haven't wetted through. Am I able to add another coat of tooling resin to the whole piece or will it fail to integrate?

Thanks. 

Is it possible to add one more thick layer of reinforcement or will it fail to bond?

It looks ok in that photo, I dont see anything there that I would say looks catastrophic. If the skin coat went on well then I think you'll get away with it 🙂
