I am going to vacuum bag a Carbon Fiber bar stool, using IN2 Resin, Soric and Carbon Fiber Tape at the edges of the Soric, like in the How To...Bonnet/Hood video. The stool will be like a 16-inch wide ribbon with a profile that looks like a "Z", and a Soric core. The total length is approximately 65-inches. I am in the US, and I cannot find Infusion Grade Spray Tack anywhere.

What method/s (other than Spray Tack) could I use to hold the Carbon Fiber Tape, Cloth, and Soric in place?

Many Thanks!

That definitely sounds like way too much meths in the mix. we would normally be using around 10-15% max which should be enough to spray it through most "spritzer" type bottles. Although its not something we have seen before, it does seem that excessive meths has somehow effected the efficiency of EasyLease in this case.

In our opinion, the best solution for your problem, especially as you are using glass fibre is to use our FusionFix GP Spray Adhesive. As you are using glassfibre rather than cosmetic carbon, any slight issues on the surface will easily polish off and we also know from experience that Fusion Fix does not impact on release agents.


I'm actually making cosmetic carbon, I was using the fibre glass version as a tester to see how it went first before committing to the carbon.The fibreglass version is being used by someone who will be painting it anyway. I'll give it a try with less 10% methylated spirits next time.
