Just a tip from the group: when using the vacuum bagging, does anybody use only the perforated film and the breather? Adding to these,I use also the peelply (as it could be as usual) closer to the carbon fiber, but when out of the mould the finish is with the texture of the peelply.
Do you think I could use only the film and the breather, so to have the carbon with a more glossy finish?
Thanks for your help
Alessandro

Ok,thanks, I'm sanding the surface of the piece, as it came out with the texture of the peelply, and I will also use the only perforated film, so the have the "glossy" finish.
Thanks

Yes you can, but it will be an uneven and slightly bumpy surface, and not really "glossy" -- I find that peel-ply, when removed makes for a very nice even surface, that can be coated very easily with clear coat or just brushed carefully with epoxy, making a much nicer surface. Also, when the peel-ply is removed, the surface can be sanded a bit down very easily, and you will use less coating.
