Hi,

Do you foresee problems if I use a sheet of polypropylene (smooth, no texture) as surface for wet-lay sheets approx 1.2 x 1m?

I have been told glass is ideal for this (thank you Wozza!) but I want to create a shallow curve in the sheet.

I can test on a smaller scale but I'm not sure what might happen on this larger scale regarding release, reactions and warping?

Many thanks for your advice.

You dont need to as such.  For good cosmetic finish sheets i would avoid it as any flaw or uneveness in the release coat application may show up on the sheet.
