I am building a new glareshield for an airplane. The rear edge of the part has a bull nose and a slight return. All the angles are slightly open so parts un-mold without issue. But, getting fabric and resin to fill the corners in the underhang has proven difficult. I vacuum bag the part.
Does anyone have any tips for this sort of part? Thank you.

I am sure the members could help. There is not enough information to go on.
Supply some pictures of your plane and where the part goes? A sketch as well on what you are about to do would help.
