Hi
this I know and have tried, but firstly it does not make a 100% difference, with the same pressure it gets dry under the toplayer,
I have also tried this with EC´s new polyester based clearcoat with the same result.
Secondly its a messy procedure and the alternative to change for infusion seems better.

Hii morning from Indonesia,
Laying up the epoxy resin before reinforce the fabric, wait until the epoxy resin layer is tacky/little bit hard then you can laying up the fabric (CF) and laminate the layer with resin until you end up with vacum bagging. This way will making sure that the surface is free from dry areas, because the resin on the surface is not absorb to much on fabric (cause the resin is tacky).
see on this video:

All the best
