I'm trying to speed up my infusion work process - normally when the resin infusion is complete, I turn off the vacuum. Then leave overnight, then post cure.... I could transfer to the oven straight after turning off vac - any suggested ramps for this to achieve fast cure and 60-70 degree post cure?

Thanks,
James

Hello Jamesw

I use a fast hardener with the epoxy and hold the part at 20-25 degrees and they can be removed from the mould in under 4 hours, not sure if this helps.
