Hi I'm doing resin infusion and I'm very happy with the glossy finish apart from some tiny gaps around the fibres on the surface finish.any ideas where I might be going wrong?
I hope its a clear enough picture thanks in advance

So clamp the vac side first then leave the resin side pumping for another 20-30 secs then clamp the resin side off is this what you mean I read something like this in another post didn't no weather it was applicable to my problem.It quite confusing in the ec guide it tells you to do it another conflicting info.
Its a pretty glossy finish to be dry isn't it?
