I bought a infusion starter kit from EC. In this kit I got a couple square meters of breather layer cloth. I have seen the instructions film on easy composites.com, but I have't seen a film with the breather cloth in use. So I have some questions:

- When should I use the breather cloth?
- Why do I use the breather cloth? 
- How do I use the breather cloth?

Hi RedRocket; the Breather Fabric is something which we constantly consider as to whether it should or shouldn't be included within the kit. For some projects,  as per MarkMK's suggestion, it is used along with or instead of a resin break to act as a soaker or alternatively, and the predominant reason why it is in the kit, when envelope bagging or if you have any sharps (botls, nuts, fasteners, etc.) then the breather cloth can be used to protect agaisnst puncturing the vacuum bag - You're right to question though as for most Resin Infusion processes, it won't be necessary.
