Hi
Im new to this and tried skinning a fuse cover.

I did the following
rough sanding with 400 grit
Rinse with industrial cleaner and lighter fluid
One layer with EC epoxy base coat
Then i waited approx 2hours when it was tacky with no paint coming off.
Then i applied one 200g 2twill pro finish layer, cut it formed it and put masking tape around the edges of the carbon.
A thick layer of laminating resin was applied.
After this i covered all the carbon area with peel ply and on top of that a layer of breather cloth and the bag connector.
Then sealed it all with plastic and managed to get a leak free seal.
Let it stay over the night and removed the peel ply.

what i found was that the carbon was firmly in plase, but there was alot of print through and the carbon looks almost dry.

So when using this technique do i have to put on additional layers of resin and vacuum bag it again and again?
How do i reduce the peel ply print on the carbon?

Ok thanks for the advice.
This is all a learning process so all the parts im working with at the moment are considered a loss, if any parts turns out to be usable, thats a bonus. hehe

But for the secondary layer, should i also use peel ply and vacuum? i mean.. if the peel ply always leaves a mark then it is not suitable for viewable surfaces (sorry for the bad wording)
I guess its probably best to paint on the next resin layer, let it dry and work my way through the grits when sanding.
