Finished the mould and pulled the first half of an oil catch tank for a customers Hillclimb car. The plan is to pull a second half, bond the two together and then trim off the flange. Done with infusion 200grm CF - 2 x 290grm E Glass - 200grm CF. Weight of one half is 123grms, could probably loose one layer of E Glass. Capacity when finished will be 2 ltrs.

Looks great! Did you use a gelcoat? I kind of see a blue-ish misty layer? or is it just the camera-flash?


Hi Matthieu, bit of both I thinkSmile

I used GC50. With the mould being quite deep and narrow I may of laid it down a bit heavy with the gelcoat gun. I use GC50 often not just for UV protection but mainly in this case to act like spray tack to hold the first layer of cloth in place.
