Hi, I'm new and I apologise if this is a dumb question. I'm making things out of carbon fibre with compression moulds and they will easily fit into a kitchen oven. I googled it and nobody seems to be using their kitchen oven. Is there a hidden problem that I'm missing? Will the epoxy fumes kill me or something like that?

The reason I want to make the switch from room temp epoxy to pre preg is that I can't seem to get a neat weave. Will using pre preg help me keep the weave straight?

My oven goes as low as 60 celcius and my moulding material can withstand 300ish. So getting the right temperature shouldn't be an issue.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ok guys I've done the new thread. It's called RTV2 silicone for moulds.

To answer my own initial question...

I found a guy who makes all sorts of car parts with all sorts of resins in his kitchen oven. He said he's been doing it for years and he's still alive and well.
