Infusion on old mold without flanges

Hi all

I plan to start with infusion now and one part I want to do has a mold
that I did some years ago when I only did wet layup, it has almost no flanges.
So I have to use an envelope bag, but is that possible with infusion?
Or will the resin go around the whole mold?

you can help the resin flow on the edges with a heat gun...or put before your mold in the oven, or make a heated mold. I'm trying now a heated mold with RTMLight
