Hi!
I use vaccum bagging and I want to kill all the pinholes. I was wondering, can I spray clear coat on mould after puting release agent, after laquer I would put normal layup. Will the clear coat release? Will it bond to polyester or rather epoxy? I've talked to Mathieu and he said that it would be ok put first layer should be thin and after it doesn't matter.
Thanks for taking your time

There is something called an IMC (In-Mould Coating), available in clear and many other colours. You spray it directly into the mould and then proceed with normal layup.

HP-Textiles in Germany sells it.
