Hey guys, I cant go ahead with one problem , I infuse my parts everything is good quality , I cure them in oven but my finished surface has signs of carbon fiber.. Is it possible to fight against this without using gelcoat?

Last time for instance when I used lantor soric on flat sheet it also could be seen in some angles on finished product.. I could even feel it under my fingers

The funny thing its not seen in photos.


I start to think that this issue is the biggest disadvantage of using infusion process.

Whats your ideas?

Mould is made from epoxy. It is said it's hardener for 180minutes life, but of course oven curing shorten this time. I test it on small flat panels like 30x40 centimeters, so its not a big thing I guess
