Hi

I was wondering if it was possible to dissolve the PU 80 low density model board in some solvents after having laminated a CF cloth around it ?

The idea would be to
- cut the foam to the target shape
- apply the epoxy/CF cloth
- dip the hole thing in a jar of acetone / other solvent



Thanks for your help !
P.

Thanks very much indeed !

My idea of a case was more something like that http://www.technologytell.com/apple/57482/iphone-4-cases-2/ (the first picture on the webpage). Something I could slide the phone in and out. Then I need to wrap the CF around a male model of my phone. A dense wood would definitely be better but the balsa helps me to obtain the right thickness as I will cover the inside of the case with some soft fabric to protect the phone.
My issues are with the right angles where I have less fiber and this is really easy to damage. But I'll work it out !

Cheers!

                     Yeah, polystyrenes come in clear as well as expanded forms.
