Hey Guys
thanks for the advice have done a new layup using carbon and kevlar, both twill weave this time so went into the mold much easier. Also clampped my original helmet inside of the new layup to compress the material and resin as much as possible using a couple of layers of peelply and a plastic bag so it wouldnt stick.
love the vacuum infusion setup you used for your hockey helmet!! looks awesome
thanks again
and fingers crossed it pops out of the mold tomorrow
