Guys,

I have just de moulded my 2nd resin infusion from the mould. The results are good, but not great.

My laminate consisted of three layers of carbon using the easycomposites infusion resin, peel ply and infusion mesh. The mould was treated with easylease and the part demoulded quite easily. The surface finish of the part appeared a little resin starved with consistent but very slight surface voids throughout the part surface.

I have actually achieved better results from vac bagging. Any suggestions why I'm not getting the perfect finish I was expecting? I had a full vacuum on the part throughout the infusion. 

Advice would be appreciated.
