Hi Guys,
I have been making the odd pieces out of carbon and I have recently purchased a vacuum pump and a vacuum regulator to vacuum bag all the pieces I do.
However, no matter what i do, I still always seem to get some air trapped and it spoils the finish. 

Apart from vacuum infusion as that is another process that i have to learn and some of my moulds don’t lean to being used for that process.

Any thoughts on the best process I can use to try and avoid this?  And if it still happens, what is the best way of removing them and bringing them back to a good finished state once the piece is finished and out of the mould ? I have a large piece to do very soon so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Personally I find wet lay vac bagging significantly easier to do using 'wet preg' technique rather than wetting the carbon out in the mould. YouTube DIY pre-preg and you'll find a good video describing the process.
